Today we took more notes off of the powerpoint again. Here are some: Only 20% of Greece has arable land which is great for farming. There was Greek diet which consisted on olives, grapes, grains, and fish. The temperature ranged from mid 40's in winter and low 80's in the summer. The Mycenaeans were around 200 BCE. The Mycenae Kings ruled from 1600- 1100 BCE. The tone of Mycenae was protected by a 20ft thick wall surrounding it. The Trojan War was found in Troy in 1200 BCE.

He composed stories during the Trojan War like the Lliad and The Odyssey.
