What did Wace's theory contradict?
Minoan Crete's dominance
Roman Empire's influence
Egyptian cultural supremacy
Byzantine control
Answer
Minoan Crete's dominance was contradicted by Wace's theory, which proposed that Mycenaean Greece was the dominant civilization in the Aegean region during the Bronze Age. Wace's theory challenged the long-held belief that Minoan Crete was the primary power in the area, based on archaeological evidence he uncovered at Mycenae, including the discovery of the Lion Gate and the Treasury of Atreus.
