Detailed explanation-1: -The term Greek Dark Ages refers to the period of Greek history from the end of the Mycenaean palatial civilization, around 1100 BC, to the beginning of the Archaic age, around 750 BC.
Detailed explanation-2: -The year 1100 B.C. or so marked the end of higher civilization in the Aegean for a long time. The succeeding period (1100-750 B.C.) is conventionally called the Dark Ages of Greece, and it is aptly named. Because writing disappeared along with Mycenaean civilization, no written evidence exists for this period.
Detailed explanation-3: -The period following the end of Mycenaean Greece, c. 1100–800 BC, is generally termed the “Greek Dark Ages".
Detailed explanation-4: -After 1177 B.C., the survivors of this Bronze Age collapse were plunged into a centuries-long “Dark Ages” that saw the disappearance of some written languages and brought once-mighty kingdoms to their knees.
