Mycenaean anthropomorphic figure, Mycenae temple, Room 19, 1250-1180 BC. Ref LH IIIB2. Mycenae archaeological site Museum, Greece. It is not known what Mycenaean anthropomorphic figures depict, but as these were excavated from the temple complex of Mycenae it can be suspected that they may represent religious characters like Gods or Priests. They could equally represent Mycenaean elites who put their voitve depictions in the temple. These Mycenae anthropomorphic figures show a development towards realistic human represntations. Sadly we will never know if they are acurate depictions of any single individual.
