Mycenaean influence was exerted on the islands of the south-eastern
Aegean through the improvement of both people and ideas through
migration, colonisation and invasion. This study explores Mycenaean
influence through analysing the burial record of islands in the
south-west and in particular Karpathos, Rhodes, Kos and Ialysos.
Data on the architecture and types of burials found, treatment of
the body, funerary ritual and grave goods, are used to build a
picture of local and regional burial traditions and belief systems.
Issues of ethnicity and culture, ideological and cosmological
beliefs, as well as the social and political characteristics of
these Mycenaean societies, are discussed and common traditions
highlighted.
