Excerpt from The Homeric Palace We find, therefore, that during the Mycenaean period, the life of which no one seriously doubts that the Homeric poems reflect, though they are at a greater or less distance from it, each Chieftain or each king has his own particular stronghold. He seats himself on some prominent crag and gathers around him his immediate family and dependents. In the valley below, and on the slopes of the hill, dwell the different clans of the great sept which the king rules. Each clan cultivates the land which is held in common.

In time they grow too numerous for the ramparts to contain, and then they wall in a space at the foot of the hill and make this their defence.
