Detailed explanation-1: -Other changes recorded towards the end of the Dark Age are: recovery of literacy (Greek alphabet) after the abandonment of the Mycenaean Linear B script, increasing contacts with regions outside the Aegean, and the emergence of a new and successful form of political institution (the early poleis).
Detailed explanation-2: -The time period known as the Greek Dark Age began in 1200 BCE and lasted until 800 BCE at the start of the Archaic Period. This period of time is associated with archeological evidence such as graves and pottery, which showed a decline in the wealth, art, writing, and culture associated with Bronze Age civilizations.
Detailed explanation-3: -People worked in farming, fishing, or as traders, soldiers and scholars (scientists, artists and teachers). For many Greeks, life was hard, as they were often poor and resources like water, farmland and timber for building could be scarce. For this reason lots of Greeks sailed away to find new lands to settle.
