∙ 8y agoMainly because it is the period of which we have no contemporary documentation. So we are 'left in the dark' as to most of the developments in that prehistoric era and have to rely on a few archeological finds and the (usually highly untrustworthy and glorified) stories on those times written only 400 years or more later.

Is it true or false that from 1100-750 bc the Greeks went through a difficult period of time called the Dark Age?
The period from 1100 to 750 BC in Greece is called the Greek Dark Ages, but since there were other periods in other places also called Dark Ages, it is a good idea to be careful about how the name is used. It is probably best not to use the term "the Dark Ages" to apply to the Greek Dark Ages, because most people who use the term without qualification mean Western Europe during the period of 476 to 1000 AD. It is also a term that has fallen out of use among historians.
