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

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