Answer 3

The Mycenaeans influenced ancient Greeks, as did the Minoan culture.

The Greeks record their origins as coming from the Balkans, so they were probably influenced by the Vinca people who lived in that area about 7,500 years BP. You should compare Trypillian and ancient Greek pottery, as well (sibling to Vinca culture), it's very similar to the Greek style.
