Περιγραφή
Minoan Crete is a place in which a great many elements of European civilisation appear for the first time, with architectural monuments that are unique in area, volume, wealth and history; international trade relations with all the known peoples of the world at that time, especially ancient Egypt, where there is abundant evidence of the Keftiu who have been identified as Cretans; a religion manifest in every expression of daily life; love of nature confirmed, inter alia, by the presence of the plant, marine and animal worlds in works of art; respect for the human being demonstrated by the attention to and care of the dead in magnificent necropolises; and above all their singular art, whose duration is long and multifaceted. It is a place, then, whose myths, tradition, and high level of culture attract and charm anyone who decides to investigate it.
