History with Cy | The Bronze Age in Paradise: The Early Societies of the Cyclades (Early Cycladic Culture) @HistorywithCy | Uploaded 11 months ago | Updated 2 hours ago
If you've been to any major archaeological or even art museum in Europe or the United States, then you've probably seen what seem to be rather strikingly minimalist marble figurines and small statues of various shapes and sizes that come from the island group known as the Cyclades. The question that has been puzzling many archaeologists for quite some time is who were the people who created these works art and how did they live? In this video, we'll examine the mysterious Early Cycladic cultures of the Bronze Age Aegean world.
