Not sure how I missed it the first time around, but this (https://www.ancientworldmagazine.com/articles/sources-disinformation-bad-reconstructions/ …) article over at @AncientWorldMag is a great discussion of both Bronze Age Mycenaean military equipment in pop culture as well as how bad reconstructions can fester in pop depictions. 1/6
I think @JoshoBrouwers also really nails the difference between, say, a Peter Connolly - often badly underappreciated by scholars - and someone like Raffaele D'Amato.
Connolly made up for his lack of specialist training with an abundance of caution... 2/6
...which is why I'm still frequently recommending his Greece and Rome at War (1981) after so much time. By contrast, D'Amato's work, even on Roman armor, is sadly not to be recommended (go for Feugere or Bishop&Coulston instead)... 3/6
...D'Amato tends, even when discussing Roman equipment (where the evidence is substantially better than with the Mycenean Bronze Age) to advance...let's say 'bold'...interpretations with no hint to the reader that he is well outside the generally accepted interpretation. 4/6
The overall point @JoshoBrouwers makes on the Bronze Age in Homer is also good, I think. I tend to think there is a *bit* of the Bronze Age frozen in Homer, but - as I tell my students - the Bronze Age in Homer is like the egg in cake batter... 5/6
...you know it's there (chariots! boar's tusk helmets!), but it isn't the majority ingredient and most importantly there is no way to get it back out again. Anyway, really solid essay, give it a read! end/6
