If you've been to any major archaeological or even art museum in Europe or the United States, then you've probably seen what seem to be rather strikingly minimalist marble figurines and small statues of various shapes and sizes that come from the island group known as the Cyclades. The question that has been puzzling many archaeologists for quite some time is who were the people who created these works art and how did they live? In this video, we'll examine the mysterious Early Cycladic cultures of the Bronze Age Aegean world.

This is great content. The Mueseum of Cycladic Art in Athens is small but incredibly interesting musuem featuring artifacts from the Cyclades islands. It was one of my favorite museums on my 2008 trip to Greece.

Heh. I remember the first time I studied these art pieces... I always thought it was interesting how artstyles almost feel "cyclical", as in, the earliest artwork were very abstract and stylised, but as time went on various cultures strove to make art increasongly more realistic, only to then decide to move "backward" after being exposes by artworks such as these. It's really cool

My best guess is that the earliest bronze age was the period when the individuals who inspired the classical myths were walking the earth and doing remarkable things....guys like Herakles and Hyperion. Their stories got embellished and misremembered over the centuries until they were part of a religious hierarchy of gods. I also believe that this can be said of the events depicted in The Mahabharrata, and that is all that remains to us from the earliest bronze age in both regions. A shadowy glimpse of a long forgotten age.... That's why I dig history in all of it's disciplines, it answers the questions that it can.

Good, we need something positive in our troubled present. Let's go back into pre-oligarchic, pre-state paradise, even if it's only with the mind and memory. Only those who know their history are able to repeat the best parts of it.

As technology progressed and traveling and trading by sea became easier, their distinctive cultural features became less prominent and they were gradually assimilated to the general Hellenic culture.
