Most Ancient history starts with the Greeks but having read Barry Cunlife's Europe Between the Oceans it opened my eyes to how much European history is known, even northern European, going back thousands of years before the Greeks, some of it fairly advanced. Why do we embrace the Greeks as a foundation of Western culture but ignore European history elsewhere? Or do the Greeks rightly deserve this reputation?
