BELLWORK 9/25 MINOAN &
MYCENAEAN CIVILIZATION
How were the two civilizations we studied yesterday similar?
How were they different?
MINOAN
CIVILIZATION
Located on the island of Crete in the
Mediterranean Sea
Peloponnese
Mesopotamia
EGYPT
MINOAN
CIVILIZATION
•
Located on the island
of Crete in the
Mediterranean Sea
•
Success was based on
trade, not war.
•
They had trade posts
throughout the
Mediterranean including Egypt &
Mesopotamia
We talked a lot about how geography
or location affected Egypt and
Mesopotamia, how do you think the
location of Crete affected the
Minoans?
ART IN KNOSSOS
Knossos was the capital
city of the Minoan Empire
The palace housed rooms
for the royal family,
banquet halls, and
working areas for artisans
The palace also had a
number of shrines (areas
dedicated in honor of
different gods & goddesses)
& frescoes (which are
water color paintings done
on wet plaster)
What does this image tell use about Minoan culture?
FRESCOES
RELIGIOUS SHRINES
Crazy thing about Minoan culture is that
ALL of the gods (well goddesses) we
have found evidence of have been
female.
What is the significance of this compared
to other ancient civilizations?
What is this mother goddess holding?
Minoans also worshiped Bulls – have you
ever heard of bulls in religion before?
MINOAN
CIVILIZATION
DISAPPEARS
By 1400 BC something took out the Minoans, it
could have been any of the following:
volcanic eruption
earthquake
invaders
What we do know is that a new civilization took
their place, we call them the Mycenaeans
MYCENAEAN
CIVILIZATION
Conquered mainland Greece
& Crete around 1400 BC &
ruled until about 1200 BC
The Mycenaeans were also
great sea traders.
They lived in separate citystates & were ruled by a
warrior king
Most famous for their part in
the Trojan War

GREEK DARK AGE –

After the fall of Mycenaean
Civilization around 1100 BCE Greece
goes dark
• Decreasing production of art &
pottery
• Agriculture collapses

this era is a story, the first story,
written down by a man named Homer
HOMER’S THE ILIAD & THE ODYSSEY

tells us about the culture of Ancient Greece, write these in
your note book under the bell work

GREEK
GEOGRAPHY
Greece is a mountain
covered peninsula that juts
into the Mediterranean Sea
How might this affect the
development of ancient
Greece as a civilization?
TYPES OF GOVERNMENT
Between 750BC &500 BC different
governments evolve in Greece due to the
Geography
Monarchy
Aristocracy
Oligarchy
Democracy
MONARCHY STAGE 1
Hereditary Ruler – known as a
monarch or King
Has authority over everyone in
the kingdom
Made laws & acted as judges
Led the army
Had a group of wealthy
advisors known as aristocrats
ARISTOCRACY STAGE 2
WEALTH=POWER
Wealthy group of people who advised the king
at first had no real power
began to insist kings be elected
this leads to democracy, oligarchy & tyranny
OLIGARCHY
This is when a small group of wealthy
advisors were able to over power or
‘buy’ the king.
Most of these men were aristocrats- they
inherited land & resources from their
parents
They lived comfortable lives while the
poor suffered.
Advantages:
decisions are made relatively
quickly
brings wealth to the city states
Disadvantages:
most people remained poor
most of the poor were ignored
TYRANNY
Around 600 B.C people turn to powerful
men who promised to change the
government
These men took power by force, usually
using the military
People didn’t have many rights, but it was
better than being left out like they were with
the oligarchy
Advantages: Led by a person who often
tried to help the masses
Disadvantages: not many rights
-
Had to do whatever the Tyrant
demanded
-
Some tyrants were worse than the
oligarchs
WARFARE SHAPES GREECE
Since the people living in Monarchies,
Oligarchies or Tyrannies did not have
many rights – their last resort to get
those rights was violence
New military technology increases the
power of the middle class
Hoplite- a citizen/soldier who was armed
with a spear, shied & sword
Phalanx- a formation of heavily armed
foot soldiers that was 16 people wide &
16 people deep
required extensive training
promoted a sense of unity among
the citizens
DEMOCRACY
Around 500 B.C the people of
Athens decide they would like to
govern themselves
People have the power
Citizens are able to vote on laws,
kings & public policies
Advantages: good amount of
freedom
-
Everyone gets a say
Disadvantages: the mob ruled,
minorities generally suffer

THINGS TO FIX
Introductions- All you need to do in this section is introduce your topic.
Talk about Greece or ancient civilizations in general. Talk about the
effect they have had on us today. Point out the debate that is going on.
Thesis- NEEDS TO BE ONE SENTENCE THAT OUTLINES THE 3
REASONS YOU THINK ONE IS BETTER THAN THE OTHER
don’t start to explain why, just state it, the why is for the
paragraphs
Athens= the city
Athenian= the people or institutions from the city (Athenian Education)
Sparta= the city
Spartan= the people or institutions from the city (Sparta Military)
GOVERNMENT
EVALUATION SURVEY
Rank the four forms of government you learned about in your
gallery walk in terms of effectiveness. 1 being the best, 4
being the worst.
In a paragraph response explain in detail why you ranked the
governments the way you did. (you need to provide
reasoning for your answer! It is not enough to say “I ranked
oligarchy as number one because it was the best” – You
NEED to provide evidence for why you think it is the best.
DBQS: THINGS TO FIX FOR YOUR
FINAL DRAFT, DUE FRIDAY
Keep a Formal Tone
Use proper grammar
Read it out loud!!!!
Cite your sources
Whenever you use information you got from the documents you need
to reference the document, quote the information & then explain what
you quoted!
For example:
In document one it states “Athenian boys started their education at
age 7”. This shows how serious they were about making good
citizens, it also shows a good amount of sexism since girls weren’t
allowed to attend.
Explain your points!!!
Its not enough to just make a statement, be sure to explain what that
statement tells us about the society as a whole, so what if the Athenian
government was democratic? What are the good or bad things about
democracy?
