@@HistorywithCyHonestly your one of the most thorough historians on youtube, you try to add multiple contexts, and you give different possibilities on stuff where's there's missing pieces. No one's unbiased but I can't tell you try not to. Thanks for the hard work
Cy, you truly have stepped in to take the place of History Channel for me. I just love the way you narrate and the flow you have to telling history that makes it come alive. However much careful planning you put into these videos really shows and is supremely appreciated.
Thanks, I have a lot of b-roll from Mycenae, Tiryns and Pylos that I might just make short, separate videos on those places...or maybe something like a walking tour so that those of you who haven't been there can see what they're like. Thanks for watching!
Ah the Mycenaeans: wonderful, alluring, enchanting and, to this day, enigmatic. Their civilization is utterly unique- thanks for this ep. on a chilly Sunday night! Be safe.
@@HistorywithCyI'm looking to find out as much as possible about the Europe and especially south eastern Europe history and I really enjoyed to see that someone separated the Mycenaean history of the Greek history. Actually the Greeks coming in the area are the beginning of the end of the Mycenaean civilization. There were two different kind of culture. Where ever the Greeks came, they found there the pelasgians which seems to be the south Thracians or similar people and we know this from Herodotus. We know also that the last isle conquered by the Greeks was Lemnos and the Greeks said that the Thracians were the original people of it. Iliad is also saying that the Trojans called to help them some Thracians being rhem relatives. The Greeks were a civilization of wars/conflicts, authority and domination property of the land, slavery, patriarchy and people control. The Minoan and the Mycenaean culture were exactly the opposite. The same process of destruction happened when a similar culture as the Greek one, the Indo-European one came and destroyed the Cucuteni-Trypillian culture. The same, again when the Rome a culture derived from the Greek culture raised up, the Etruscans culture, matriarchy, no war weapons, no authorities, no slavery, was destroyed. So I think that a few important changes made the Europe and all the world to be what it is today, a jewish culture and hegemony world. The book "A new history of the humanity" reveal the last of this changes, when the Europeans invade and conquered the North America territories and in that book is a good description and understanding of this process of the cultural changes.
I would just like to thank this channel for the important content it offers. Informative and doesn't waste everyone's time with deceptive re-enactments, which are never adequate. Instead we are shown actual artifacts, with labels, along with the archaeology and locale. Graphics are of low quality, but that's almost the point. Thanks.
You have no idea how much I needed this, doing my classical civilisations gcse either this year or next, and I've been looking desperately for a reliable and interesting video on the mycenaeans.
Thank you Cy! I've amassed so many hours watching your Mesopotamian videos and more that at this point, frankly, it would just be a bit rude of me not to tell you that you're the bees knees of a UA-cam Historian! Fascinating content, passionately curated and lovingly presented - much thanks from the UK!

Just yesterday, i was pining away about when is Cy our History guy ever going to give us more of his awwesome hard work and botta boom botta bing! Here's Cy the History guy 😁 with what looks like a well waited for epic!!! Thank you Cy!
Absolutely amazing that there is a free video for over an hour, covering the Mycenaeans! I’m looking forward to this!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us and giving us the facts, theories, and voices of past civilizations! This is beyond cool 🙂🔺☀️🔺🙏
Oh wow. I'm really going to enjoy this! All of Cy's videos are incredible. Excellent narration, the maps/footage of the different locations just make it all a treat to watch.
Yo you are a legend bro your videos always are top notch with detail of primary evidence and great narration of old texts. Your one of the best history channels on UA-cam 1000%
Fascinating and extremely detailed research. As a student of Ancient History it really helped me to pull together lots of threads of information that hadn't been connected. It's nice to see Mycenae again, been about 30 years since I went there with college. Thanks alot CY,top notch.
You literally have been my go to for History ever since History Channel stopped showing actual History it is hard to find long videos featuring History. And fun fact yesterday I was looking at a recommended article saying that Minoan and Mycenaeen share common ancestors due to similarities in DNA they both descended from the first Neolithic farmers of western Anatolia and the Aegean but Mycenaeen people who are share DNA ancestry with the modern Greeks have an additional ancestry of Caucasus and Iran northern steppe populations.
I recommend Ancient Americas channel, they have a very similar style but it's all about ancient america. Fall of Civilizations it's also amazing. Covers ancient history from all over the world but they post only once every six months or so. One of my favorite channels is Religion for Breakfast on the topic of history of religions
Just started and I arleady known I am going to love this video. Can't wait to binge this all in one go. Good stuff mate! keep it up, really loving your series on the ancient Egyptian dynasties.
Thanks so much, really glad you're enjoying this and the other topics. Working on the next Egypt Dynasty video and hope to have it out next month. Thanks for watching, really appreciate it!
My tour guide in the mountain view at 2:20 explained that the two peaks represented cattle horns. She went on to explain the old Greek culture here, but I'm only now understanding what she was talking about.
Thank you for another fantastic video! I love these longer episodes. I enjoy how the Myceneans are simultaneously mysterious and yet well-known in the historical and archeological record. God be with you out there everybody. ✝️ :)
As a history teacher, I am insanely grateful for that titanic work. Will use parts of this video when would be teaching my students Mycenaean civilization
Thanks, I'm really glad you enjoyed it! I also was a history teacher for a short while and wish we had covered the Bronze Age in more detail. If there's anyway that I can help you (books, sources, presentations etc.) please don't hesitate to send me an email. Thanks for watching, appreciate it!
I really need to hop on patreon, I feel like I owe it to you. Since discovering your channel about a year ago I consistently watched your videos every morning while shaving and in the background until I exhausted them about 4 months ago. My house seems different without your voice there so it's always good to see when you've published new work. The quality was great as always, my interest lies primarily in the Near East but I am always impressed by the consistent quality you display and your ability to digest and pass on information. Masterful.
Absolutly wonderful description of that distant ancient societies... As far as I get IT SEEMS that even Aheeians Did manage to qonquered Wilusa ( Ilion& Troy) after return home they Did suffered a lot because others migratory invaders... Sea People... Regarding " Homer" Iliada & Odiseea ... Well they remain a Beautiful Story for many generations ... A unified poetical instrument for future Greek Polises ... Common grounds ... A sense of common knowledge & belonging of same POPULATION... Best regards from Bucarest ROMANIA 🍀🤗
very much enjoy the scenery and the ruins filmed on such a beautiful day, blue sky and bright sunshine, a beautiful location !! I hope one day to visit. Have been told that in the early language the way the word Mycenae was said is as follows: mic-ken-eye, and mic-ken-eye-an
Fantastic introduction and overview of the Mycenaean culture and the associated history, which is of crucial and particularly formative importance for the culture of the Western world and its development up to the present day. Great history lesson. Thank you very much for this really great video!
I remembered to hit like before your dulcet tones and professional presentation lull me to sleep! Yes! Love your work, it's enjoyable and informative when I'm fully awake and soothing for when I need to fall back asleep!
It is just mind blowing to me when he pulls out the texts, 57:51 for example where Arnuwanda is straight replaying Maddu's F up for him, from over two and a half millennia ago like they were just some tweets on X or something!?! There should be a class in school where kids just get to hear the voices of our ancestors. Hear them speak of their issues, their concerns, their treachery, and triumph. It would be awesome. Also, i wish there was a website that would catalog all the available texts in a single place. I bet AI will one day make tremendous advances in these documents. Especially considering how so many of them remain unread and not deciphered.
One interesting thing about the Tudhaliya letter to the King of Amuru, the title Great King of Ahhiyawa was actually crossed out by the scribe, potentially meaning that the Mycenaean States were beginning to decline at that time, causing them to lose their status as equals to the Hittite Kings.
This is absolutely fascinating to listen to! I must admit that all the Hittite names sound like spicy Mexican food to me, maybe due to the Hittites' fondness for names ending in "li" reminding me of "chili"...
I love how before you got into the nitty gritty of the culture, you first established its mythological and then geographical framework. THAT is how you teach history.
Great video. Even though that palace centers were themself cities. Remember that below there was a lover town and an outer citywall . Also historians now belive that pylos may have been fortified. But that there was a wall around the lover town . There may be more palace centers un-discovered yet.
Yeah I'm sure Pylos must have had some sort of wall, just they haven't found remnants of a cyclopean one like at Tiryns or Mycenae. The stones and bricks from the older wall were probably small enough to be taken and used for later constructions as was often the case in the ancient world. Thanks for watching!
It should be mentioned that Agamemnon's and Menelaus's father was named Atreus. It wouldn't be surprising if the "Attarsiya" mentioned by the Hittites was Atreus. After all, Agamemnon and Menelaus being both kings would imply an inheritance of a kingdom that encompassed atleast their two kingdoms.
Well done, Cy! I believe one must begin with the Mycenaeans to understand the formation of the Greeks and the Romans! So strange that their writing (Linear B) shows up in settlements west of Rome around 1200 BC!
hello CY ! Im happy you are still active. Nice TOPIC IN HERE! We love it ! xD xD xD A minor suggestion,unrealistic or not : NEXT time please consider doing a video about Thracian culture -- you will be a champion, if you try since it is a difficult task D Only you can achive greatness in such hard topics

Thanks, so glad you enjoyed it... was a lot of fun for me to research and hope to put out more Mycenaean-related stuff in the future. Thanks for watching!
A big mistake that almost every non-Greek does: Homer , originally, didn't write about the fight between the Greeks and the Trojans. But between Achaeans and Trojans. (originally: Αχαιοί τε και Τρώες ....). For some reason foreigners, non- Greek Historians/translators, translated it wrong since ever ..... Because Homer was Ionian Greek from Miletos, next to Troy, he knew and he considered Trojans to be Hellenes (Greeks), with the same Greek names (trojan Paris was also called Alexandros) same Greek habits, architecture, worshipping the same Greek Gods .... I'm looking forward for a non-Greek historian to distinguish and referre to what Homer exactly originally wrote.
Ok, I know I’m a regular HWC viewer when I stay to hear the names of the sponsors and recognize a lot of them from other videos 😆 Another great video I enjoyed very much. 👍🏻
though I've seen theroies that state that Mycenean inflnce in anatolia was greater than most people think I think you showed what twe know for sure without bias and I apleadu you for that
One thing to point out is that all archaeological excavation is by its very nature, destructive. The real difference between good and bad lies in how well a dig is documented.
Ancient cultures have always fascinated me. The fact that we have anything from them at all is amazing.
