Hellenic. An adjective meaning ‘Greek’ that in non-technical usage is applied to ancient Greek culture in general, but which in archaeological terminology is more specifically applied to the cultures of Greek-speaking societies from the beginning of the Iron Age (late 11th century bc) to about 323 bc (the death of Alexander the Great). It embraces the Geometric, Archaic, and classical periods. Earlier periods in Greece are ‘Prehellenic’, or Helladic, to which Minoan and Mycenaean art belong; the subsequent period is called Hellenistic.
