Yes the site of mycenae had the citadel and the town below and sorrounded by outher city wall . Yes there was around 30.000 people living in mycenae. 10.000 people lived in citadel. They were most associated with the kings royal court and the palace as royal scribes servants and more . While around remaining 20.000 lived in the town below

its a shame that there wasn't at least some reconstruction of the Mycenaean citadel as Arthur Evans did in the Minoan palace of Crete

Subscribed. Bronze Age Greece was always my favorite ⚔

[faramund]

Those circular twirling symbols really remind me a lot of other bronze age finds from Germanic and Celtic Europe, very interesting! I guess Indo-European culture was still fairly close back then.
