Complete History of the Minoan Civilization

[@ravensthatflywiththenightm7319]

About ten years ago I tried to write a novel about the fall of Minoan Crete and the rise of Mycenaean Greek presence on the island. It did not work out. The information I needed was simply unavailable to me. But this video gives me hope to revisit that story in the future, now that I'm learning new things.

I've watched these when they were posted separately as mini documentaries, but it's nice to watch it all again in one go. Thanks for the informative video.

Truly amazing content. Keep up this important work friend. You are doing a great job

[@WanaxTV]

That you very much. Really appreciate your comment. There will be a lot more interesting videos on the Minoans in future.

[@MichaelWalkerLang]

Outstanding and fascinating work! Very much appreciate your well-researched and well-communicated contributions. I've taken up writing stories originating from this time period as a hobby, and your videos have been the most helpful in painting an amazing and dynamic picture. Keep it up!

The fact they not playable in Troy total war is insulting

[@WanaxTV]

Agreed! After all, Idomeneus was second in command behind Agamemnon.

Ready for this great ride. Oh yeah.

[@FlashyLight]

Can I ask what games did you use to illustrate the educational video. they look really cool and I would like to try them 😊

[@WanaxTV]

I used Total War Rome 2, Total War Troy and Assassin’s Creed Odyssey.

Been following these people in my archeological bible. They were the people who wanted to live in peace. Rather than live with constant war against all the Barbarians who went from city to city slashing, burning, massacre man, woman, child farm animals burning crops and stealing children, they would move, build a new city. Eventually the Viking blitz or Mongolian hordes would come through take over, subjugate all to slavery. Kick them out eventually but they came back for revenge and smash everything they had built. They were first architecture, weavers of clothing, pottery, glass blowing, jewelry, multiple items for trading in order to get natural resources not available at their location. Nothing changes. Same destroyers are still destroying and taking over anyone successful.

Greece so beautiful nation

[@vinrusso821]

Did the Thera volcano have any bearing on why Mycenean's invaded Crete?

[@WanaxTV]

It is likely that it had a negative impact on the Minoan economy and infrastructure. It allowed the Mycenaeans to increase their own influence and grow in power, eventually coming to take over Crete itself.

Eastern Creta, Sitia region, many older site's than the other cretei, why not mentioned???

[@Uniqp23]

Now i know why crete was attacked by mycaenean Greeks King minos use to capture athenians and put them in a Labrinth which looked like a maze it was usually placed under the palace of the cretan king minos inside that maze was a creature call as minotaur one that was capable of killing captured slaves but when Theseus of Athens arrives he kills the minotaur with the help of a cretan princess this incident caused the mycaenean Greeks to attack minoans and conquer Crete.
