3.0

A very thorough book, covering a broad introduction of topics such as culture, religion, agriculture, commerce, trade, politics, everyday life, and language. The detailed look at Linear B—one of the earliest known writing systems, which was used by Mycenaean civilisation between ca. 1450 to ca. 1100 BCE—was a particular highlight of the book.
