The Mycenean Era was the time of the Iliad and the Odyssey, and Nestor and his Palace feature prominently in these powerful epics. The Late Helladic II burial of the so-called Griffin Warrior, discovered at Pylos in 2015, yielded hundreds of precious artifacts. Pylos is a name out of time and legend, immortalized by Homer in the Iliad and the Odyssey, as was the name of Nestor, the son of Neleus and Agamemnon’s right-hand man and aged advisor during the war with Troy.
