Early Greek and Phoenician Civilizations

Question 6 • 2026_SUMMER 305_CR_2109010-M/J World History B

What was true of Mycenaean civilization?

Answer
A
The Mycenaeans were conquered by the Minoans.
B
The Mycenaeans lived in a remote, isolated location.
C
The Mycenaeans were a peaceful civilization of traders.
D
The Mycenaeans colonized lands around the Mediterranean.

Explanation

The Mycenaeans sailed and expanded beyond mainland Greece, establishing settlements in lands around the Mediterranean. They were not conquered by the Minoans; Mycenaean power eventually replaced Minoan influence in the Aegean. Their society was also known for warfare, so “a peaceful civilization of traders” does not fit.
