Information about me[edit]

Hello! This is my user page. I am a student at the University of Sydney where I am studying English and Ancient History. I recently completed an assignment on Mycenaean stirrup jars heavily referencing an article about their origin[1].

This jar is named for its handle, which resembles a stirrup. Originally created in Crete in the 16th century BC, the stirrup jar was extremely popular throughout the Aegean region for both storage and transport and became the most characteristic Mycenaean vessel type. The simple decoration looks forward to the Geometric style, which began in 10th-century BC Greece.





Please don’t bite me, I’m a newbie!

I’m a university student in a Wikipedia Education class, and I’m currently learning how to contribute to Wikipedia.
This page is a work in progress and I am approaching my subject in good faith.

Thanks!
