Mycenaeans

The term “Mycenaean” is an archaeological label, applied to a particular complex of material culture from the Greek mainland that dates to the Late Bronze Age. “Mycenaeans” is a shorthand, and should explictly not be taken to refer to a particular ethnic group, since we don’t know how people in the Bronze Age Aegean defined themselves (cf. “Minoans”).
