When Heinrich Schliemann famously excavated the site in 1876, he famously declared he had gazed upon "the face of Agamemnon". Now, over a century later, a team of archaeologists, led by the author, return to the site to uncover the truth behind the myth and legend surrounding Agamemnon and his kingdom. Findings from the excavation are interwoven with ancient texts and epic poems to bring to life the world of Mycenae.
