Jousting with the Myceneans - A How-To Model

Scholars have been researching the Mycenean and Minoan warriors on their ethnological, philological and archaeological points of view. While the Iliad tells about the combat between famous warriors, this book attempts to provide an idea of the martial arts they employed to fight. These motions have been designed in association with the study of the weapons, armours and chariots used by the Aegean Bronze Age warriors during several hours of field experimentation sessions.
