namely there is a multi-city invasion of Troy being carried on

许多迈锡尼的希腊城邦联合起来
by these Mycenaean Greeks.

对特洛伊发起进攻的时候
Agamemnon has been chosen as the generalissimo

阿伽门农被选为临时大元帅
and that is what gives him, temporarily, the title of wanax.

这就是某种意义上的王
I would imagine and I'm very confident that after the war of Troy,

我们可以很大胆地想象特洛伊战争结束后
if Agamemnon had been allowed by his wife to live

如果阿伽门农进到家门
for more than a few minutes after he set foot at home,

他老婆并没有立即刺死他
he would no longer be called Wanax,

他就不会被称作瓦纳克斯
but would be called Basileus like the other rulers

他会和其他统治者一样
of their local towns.

被叫做巴赛勒斯
You remember I suggested that

你们还记得我说的
in the Linear B tablets when there was a reference to a Basileus,

B竖型简刻板提到的巴赛勒斯吧
