The archaeological sites of '''Mycenae''' and '''Tiryns''' are the imposing ruins of the two greatest cities of the [[Mycenaean civilization]], which dominated the eastern [[Mediterranean]] world from the 15th to the 12th century B.C. and played a vital role in the development of classical Greek culture. These two cities are indissolubly linked to the [[Homer|Homeric epics]], the [[Iliad]] and the [[Odyssey]], which have influenced European [[art]] and [[literature]] for more than three millennia.<ref>http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/941</ref>
