PREHISTORIC REMAINS AND <strong>THE</strong>IR DISTRIBUTION. 71<br />

Mr Salomon Reinach and Mr A. J. Evans have pointed out<br />

tlie parallelism between the Trojan and Aegean<br />

primitive iilols and those of Spaing<br />

forms of<br />

We have now passed in review the whole area throughout<br />

which Mycenean remains have come to light,<br />

and we are therefore<br />

in a position to form an estimate of tlie chief features<br />

of that remarkable civilization. It will be convenient to<br />

summarize them here. It was characteiized <strong>by</strong> great skill in<br />

the art of building, as is evidenced (a) <strong>by</strong> its great fortress-walls<br />

and gateways such as those at Mycenae, Tiryns, Athens, Goulas<br />

in Boeotia, Hissarlik, Phylakopi, Goulas in Crete, Signia,<br />

and the other great prehistoric cities of Central Italy<br />

; (6) <strong>by</strong><br />

the palaces, such as those at Tiryns, Mycenae, Athens, Goidas<br />

in Boeotia, Hissarlik, Cnossus ; (c) <strong>by</strong> a great<br />

series of tombs<br />

rangiug from the small rock-hewn pits found in Attica, Aegina,<br />

Amorgus, Antiparos, Thera, j\Ielos, in which the dead were<br />

placed in a sitting posture, and occasionally inurned in large<br />

pitlioi, as at Thoricus and Amorgus, through more elaborate<br />

rock-hewn sepulchres such as those at Xau])lia, to tlu' fully<br />

developed shaft graves of the acropolis at Mycenae, and finall}'<br />

passing into the great beehive tomb with the (h-onws, sometimes<br />

all<br />
