The Bacchae - the women celebrants of Dionysus - sure knew how to party. But in Greek mythology, they had some unusual talents, including the power to tear apart their enemies with their bare hands! What can we learn about these curious women from the Greek world? Dr. Foxwede explains.

i would be pleased if you could make a video about the mycenean civilization. I think its really interesting and mysterious as we have very limited info about them and their gods are the same but have kind of changed in the archaic, classical, helleniatic periods(for example persephone it is believed she was worshipped as an underworld god,we have come to that conclusion because in the later periods Hades is not mentioned with his name (because the ancient greeks thought saying his name would make an individual closer to death) but he is mentioned in a number of epithets. This implication is used in persephone in the mycenean age as her most common epithet is "kore" "κόρη" which means daughter.Also poseidon is more important in the mycenean age and he had a child with Demeter (persephone). In addition Hermes is an interesting god because in the mycenean age hermes is grown man with a beard, nothing compared to what we think of hermes today.

Mycenean would be great fun! Especially its religious elements, as you suggest. I've had a chance to chat with some scholars on the subject and it is fascinating how much overlap there is between M. and gods from Mesopotamia and ancient Asia Minor. A wealth of material for sure.
