We drove to a place called Mycenea yesterday. I went to a Tholos tomb and ancient city -- where a king called Agamemenon was buried 3000 years ago. When you stood in the exact middle of the tomb it sounded as if you were on speaker phone! Other parts of the city were built later -- right on top of the tomb. When you listen to the video clip you will hear all about the site I was at yesterday. It was from the Hellenistic period of time. I liked imagining what it would be like to live in the city and palace.
Yesterday was also really exciting because I found a real diamond, a pearl, and my Mom found a piece of ancient pottery. I found the diamond and the pearl on the walkway to the site. It was old, but not ancient.
By for now (or I should say Yassas)

PS -- Please ask a question about history. My Dad will make me figure out the answer and post it on my blog!
