Mycenae was an ancient city located within the Palace of Agamemnon region of Argolis, Greece. It is best known for being the home of King Agamemnon.
One of the oldest cities in Greece, dating from the 3rd millennium BCE, its walls were said to be the work of the Cyclopes. The city was later abandoned, until taken over by bandits in the 5th century BCE.[1]
Agamemnon's tomb was also connected to and located nearby. It was explored by the Spartan misthios Kassandra during the Peloponnesian War.[1]
