Mask of Agamemnon

In the summary of the article of the Mask of Agamemnon, the estimated timeline from which the mask is from is estimated to be prior to the life of Agamemnon. Reading this portion of the article with little knowledge of Agamemnon made me wonder why his lifetime wasn't included to support the fact that the mask was supposedly created before his life. Doing research informed me that Agamemnon is a leader of Greek mythology, derived from Homer's Iliad, which would explain why Agamemnon's lifetime wasn't included. This piece of information is found in the description section of the article, but many readers of wikipedia simply use the brief summary at the beginning of the article, and I believe that this simple bit of information should also be included at the beginning to avoid misunderstandings about the life of Agamemnon to those that are uninformed.
