Anotations

Scope note:

Refers to a period and style of Greek art and culture that occurred from around 1100 BCE to around 900 BCE. It is characterized by the importation of objects and styles from the Levant and Egypt, a renewal of native Greek styles, and a general recovery from the upheavals caused when the Minoan/Mycenean world was violently overthrown in the 12th century BCE. Surviving artworks include simple fibulae, primitive clay figures, and pottery that is typically decorated with circles, arcs, triangles, and wavy lines, often executed with multiple brushes and placed in horizontal bands on various parts of the vessel.
