Answer:

The “Greek Dark Ages”

After the fall of the Mycenaeans, Greece entered into a dark age. The Greek Dark Age was a period of decline, famine, and lower population throughout the region. This period lasted from around 1100 BC to 800 BC. The civilization that is often referred to as "Ancient Greece" began around 800 BC.
