1901 Wood Engraving Mycenaean Golden Cup Lion Head Egyptian Middle Bronze XHD1

This is an original 1901 black and white in-text wood engraving of a Mycenaean golden cup from Mycenae. Seen on this cup is the lion's head in the Egyptian style. There weren't many cases of iron used during this time period so it is assumed they lived during the Middle Bronze Age.
