Ήξερα για τον Πυθέα το 3ο αιώνα π.Χ., αλλά δεν ήξερα πως έχουν βρεθεί αντικείμενα από τις Μυκήνες στην Βρετανία και την Ιρλανδία. Αυτό δείχνει μια, έστω και έμμεση επαφή.
>The Mycenaean civilization was an early Greek civilization which flourished during the period between 1600 BC, when Helladic culture in mainland Greece was transformed under influences from Minoan Crete, and 1100 BC, when it perished with the collapse of Bronze-Age civilization in the eastern Mediterranean. Through trading and conquest, Mycenaean civilization spread its influence from Mycenae to many parts of the Mediterranean region and Europe. Mycenaean bronze double axes and other objects (Rillaton Barrow, Pelynt Dagger) dating from the thirteenth century BC have been found in Ireland and in Wessex and Cornwall in England, proving at least indirect Greek contact with Ireland and Great Britain at the time.
Και για τον Πυθέα:
>The first known Greek to come to Britain was Pytheas (Greek: Πυθέας) who lived in late 4th and early 3rd centuries BC. He reported its name as Prettanike and Brettaniai, for Britain and the British islands (nesoi), which became Britannia, it is assumed that its Hellenised version was under Diodorus. It may have been used by some of the local peoples where Pytheas landed to themselves -Pretani.
