The pottery of the Mycenaean civilization (1550-1050 BCE), although heavily influenced by the earlier Minoans based on Crete, nevertheless, added new pottery shapes to the existing range and achieved its own distinctive decorative style which was strikingly homogenous across Mycenaean Greece. https://www.worldhistory.org/article/455/mycenaean-pottery/ #History #Aegean #Amphora #BronzeAge

Driven by their desire for trade and the acquisition of such commodities as silver from Spain, gold from Africa, and tin from the Scilly Isles, the Phoenicians sailed far and wide, even beyond the Mediterranean's traditional safe limits of the Pillars of Hercules and into the Atlantic. https://www.worldhistory.org/article/897/the-phoenicians---master-mariners/ #History #Aegean #Baalbek #Byblos

All that is left out! Instead we are asked to watch, yet again a drama about Hollywood’s troublesome portrayal of #Israel and the area politics. #LA has come a long way to be sure but it is still dumb when it comes to the region.
PS: anyone who wants to make a film or comment about the general demographic chaos of the region due regarding the #climatemigration must mention #Turkey and #Greece. It all boils down to the #Aegean and the surrounding landscape. 2/4

DISSOLUTION OF MARE LIBERUM
The repression of the Greek Government and lacking support by EU-Governments leave us no choice. Human rights are systematically violated at the EU-borders. It cannot go on like this.
After five years of operation in the #Aegean, we have decided with a heavy heart to withdraw from #lesvos end our human rights monitoring as Mare Liberum, and dissolve the association.
