Tiryns culture (2,200 - 2,000 BC) or Early Helladic III was an Early Bronze Age culture in Central Greece, Southern Greece and the Ionian islands (part of Western Greece) that followed the Eutresis and Korakou cultures and preceded the Mycenean civilization. The "center" of the culture was the settlement of Tiryns that saw further development during the Mycenean period.[1][2][3] Around 2,000 BC, the Early Helladic period as a whole ended, and the Tiryns culture was succeeded by the Middle Helladic culture and Mycenaean Greece.[1][3]
