New study finds: Ancient Mycenaean civilization might have collapsed due to uprising or invasionThe prevailing theory until now has been that Mycenaean palaces had been destroyed by devastating earthquakes
For many years, the prevailing theory on how the Mycenaean civilisation collapsed was that devastating earthquakes led to the destruction of its palaces in the Peloponnese, southern Greece around 1,200 BC.
