Archaeology with Flint Dibble | Wealthy Mycenaean Tombs: A Personal Reflection on Excavating the Griffin Warrior Tomb at Pylos @FlintDibble | Uploaded May 2022 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
In this video we look at wealthy tombs from Late Bronze Age mainland Greece at Mycenae and Pylos. I reflect on how the excavation of the Griffin Warrior Tomb at the Palace of Nestor at Pylos helped me understand the experience of burying so much wealth (conspicuous consumption). #RealArchaeology
