D. All of the above

Explanation:

The Mycenaean civilization developed in the pre-Hellenic period of the recent Heládico, that is to say, at the end of the Age of the Bronze, between 1600-1100 a. C. It represents the first advanced civilization of the Greek mainland with its palatial states, urban organization, works of art and writing system.1 Among the centers of power that arose within it were Pylos, Troy (stratum VI of Troy), Tirinto and Midea in the Peloponnese; Orchomenus, Thebes and Athens in Central Greece and Yolkus in Thessaly. However, the most interesting city was Mycenae, located in the Argolid, and that gives name to all this civilization. The settlements influenced by Mycenae have also appeared in Epirus, Macedonia, Anatolia, the Mediterranean Levant, Cyprus and Italy. In the spring of 425 a. C., Sparta helped Messina to rebel against Athens. At the same time, the Spartans invaded Attica led by King Agis. The Athenians sent 40 ships to Sicily under the command of Eurimedonte and Sophocles, with the order to restore democracy in Corcyra (Corfu). Sparta had invaded the city with 60 ships. Demosthenes, who had won it shortly before the battle of Olpae, was able to board aboard one of the ships. A storm forced the fleet to regroup in Pilos, an excellent natural port of the Peloponnese coast about 70 km from Sparta, which delayed the trip to Corfu. This rodeo was good for Demosthenes who wanted to reinforce the fortifications of Pylos, set foot in the Peloponnese and encourage a rebellion of the Hilotas. The commanders thought that it was a waste of time and money, but the soldiers continued, in spite of everything, fortifying the area, because the bad weather prevented their exit. The fortifications were finished in six days and Demosthenes stayed on the island with five ships while the fleet continued its mission to Corcyra and Sicily. Knossos or Cnosofue the most important city of Crete during the Minoan civilization, which reached its peak in the second millennium BC. C., being the oldest palatial complex in Europe. It is located about 5 km southeast of the current city of Heraklion and west of the Kairatos River. In it the remains of the palace of Knossos stand, the most important of the Minoan period and the best known of the archaeological complexes since its discovery in 1878.
