Our emphasis of what defines the greek world and ancients greeks definition may be similar: but have placed emphasis on different definitions. Iron (dark age): 1200- 800 bc: bronze: 3000-1200 bc, archaic: 800 bc- 480 bc, classical: 480 bc - 323 bc, hellenistic: 323 bc- onwards. Classical and hellenistic periods have specific dates compared to the other because certain event occurred to make it distinct. However the broad period conclude that the dates blended and overlap into one another.
