∙ 11y agoThe primitive period or Dark Ages in Greece was considered as the period of barren art. There were wars and struggles. Arts,trade and farming were disrupted. The art of writing was forgotten and as a result, only few records about this period were written.

∙ 10y agoThere are several periods in history that are called Dark Ages. The thing that they have in common is that there are few records kept from the periods, so little history is actually known. One of these periods is called the Greek Dark Age. It happened prior to the classic period of Greek History, and lasted for several hundred years. What followed it in Greece is the Greek civilization we know quite a lot about, it it was definitely not a period referred to as Dark Ages. It was also centuries before the Middle Ages.
