The best preserved Mycenaean palace is the palace of Nestor, the mythical king of Pylos. It is estimated that it was built in 1300 BC. in the area where Ancient Pylos was located, founded by Nileas, father of Nestor.
Nestor himself is mentioned extensively in the Homeric epics as he sailed to Troy with 90 ships and according to Homer he was characterized by his wisdom and hospitality.
His palace was a fully equipped two-story building with storage areas, laboratories, baths, skylights, reception areas, and even a central sewage system. The ground floor alone has 105 apartments with the most important being the bath, the storerooms with the numerous vessels and of course the large throne room with the circular hearth and the seat of the throne.
The palace was destroyed by a great fire just 100 years after its construction and was never rebuilt.
With its discovery, however, in 1939, 1,000 linear B signs came to light, which were "baked" in the fire, and numerous artistic objects dating back to 1300 BC were also saved. most of which are currently exhibited in the Archaeological Museum of Chora.
