This course investigates the Minoan and Mycenaean civilisations (Greece, 3rd - 2nd millennia BC) as early empires. Combining archaeological, philological and interdisciplinary methods, we shall look at state formation processes, art, religion and economy in richly illustrated sessions. The course also helps develop or sharpen critical skills needed to research past civilisations.
