>>10198659>How did Minoans get to Crete in the first place?Probably on boats, friend.
>why was Crete more advanced even though they had less land and fewer resources?Civilization is more than just raw resources, Mr Jared Diamond.
>How is it possible for some people on some small island to be more advanced than the land from whence they came? Maybe it was better positioned for trade, maybe they simply had better ideas, maybe the land they came from fell into civil war and that was the reason they were fleeing in the first place. I don't know. Maybe it was Atlantis
Also, we don't know where the Minoans came from but there are some who claim that they were Hurrian speakers. idk about that one way or another, but the Hurrians were not unadvanced barbarians.
>Phoenecians during the Minoan civilizationI presume that you divide the Minoan civilization chronologically from the earlier Atlantean civilization? Given the fact that the Mediterranean has been around since at least the 4th millennium BC, and Atlantis existed on the Mediterranean floor around the 15th millennium BC, what were they doing in between this time?
Were the Phoenicians contemporaneous with Atlantis or just 3rd millennium Minoa?
Same with Egypt, Sumer, Elam, and Akkad?
>Look at the pic in the OP - there's a lot of land around Greece and Crete that is low lying.Do you think that Atlantis was connected with Mainland Greece?
What is your opinion of the Mycenaeans?
