The Dark Ages and the Geometrical period (1100-700 BC)



It's traditional that the Dying Bronze Age civilizations in Greece faded away, leaving a vacuum that started a period called the Dark Ages. There are unfortunately very few remains from this period and I have no good shots of any remain. I will there for haste on to the Geometrical period.

On a completely different subject - I have been invited to blogg at latinbloggen
for one week and if you enjoy the pictures here I recommend that you take a look there too! The subject is ancient water technology but it is (possibly unfortunately for some readers) presented in Swedish.

Interesting pattern there between the handles: looks like a combination of meanders and swastikas!
