What are you talking about?  Is a "period" supposed to be shorter than "all
those years"?  The Jurassic Period was a few million years.  Is that enough
for you?  Do you specialize in meaningless objections?

[ Moderator's comment:
  The Mycenaean documents span roughly 200 years, very little time speaking in
  historical linguistic terms.  The objection is warranted and hardly without
  meaning.
