Greek Screw Back

Written around 890 BC., Homers Iliad is among the oldest extant works of Western literature - describing the last weeks of a 10 year war with the Trojans, and thus begins our knowledge of Ancient Greece.

For the next 700 years the Greeks would thrive - forging a strong culture of jewelry making and lapidary work - until their eventual defeat by the Roman Empire in 146 BC.
