i have been there on vacation. in the center of old thera volcano is a new one rising and it's damn hot. while walking on the new volcano my shoes melted a bit!!
I think the therans were the center of minoan civilization, because the rich volcanic soil gave them enough surplusses to trade with egypt. I notice that the Amazon myths radiate from thera, so the men probably sent the women away in the early rumblings and all died nobly doing what they could to save their homes, the women becoming culturally advanced wandering refugees.
Homer (Iliad) says that Minos and the ancient inhabitants of Crete were the Achaeans generation Greeks.On the war of Troy, the Cretans were on the side of the Achaeans, Argives and the Panhellenic ΔΑΝΑΟΙ and the Another priority that Nestor the king of Pylos was the in charge of all the Achaeans with the Idomeneas who was the grandson of Minos .... "Iliad, B 402 to 405).
Diodorus (Paper 5, 60 - 80) says: "That the first inhabitants were the so-called Eteokrites, considered indigenous ... After these many generations later, Pelasgians, wandering consequential consecutive campaigns and migration, arrived in Crete and settled into a part of the island. Third was, say, the race of Dorians who arrived on the island led by Tektamo, son of Gift .ALL GREEKS!
After them, prevailed, Minos and Rhadamanthus and joined the nations of the island in one piece.. Finally, after the descent of Heraclides, Argives and Lacedaemonians sending settlers founded colonies in some other islands and, having conquered this island habitation cities therein.
Therefore Eteokrites, Kydonians, Pelasgians, Achaeans and Dorians were the same genus, the Greek tribes of Crete. Therefore, the first inhabitants of Crete were Greeks, who came from Tegea (Arcadia = - Gortynia and Laconia) and built their cities Cydonia, and Gortyn Katreas Crete and they are Kydonians and Eteokrites of Homer. And because Kydonians and Eteokrites were more old people of Crete in relation to the newcomers,WE ARE saying THEY WERE indigenous.
The cultural invasion of Crete in different parts of the northern hemisphere Especially began before 4 BC . millennium, (before the existence of any civilization in Egypt) creating several after civilizations like the Egyptian and the civilizations of South America .Any one of several cities built in the world from our ancestors Minoans was a huge milestone geodetic system log for each latitude, with oldest navel cord Field of Knossos.
Learn first the real history..stupid....and then talk!!!!
Minoans were Greeks!!!...idiot...What the hell are you talking about?.....Αμνίσος,Φαίστος ,Κυδονία ,Kνόσσος,......Greek..........Ariadne, Androgeus, Deucalion, Phaedra, Glaucus, Catreus, Acacallis, and many others...All Greek!!!Greek people Greek language!!!..STOP YOUR NONSENSE NOW!!!!
Asterios, king of Crete, adopted the three sons of Zeus and Europa, Minos, Sarpedon and Rhadamanthus. According to the Odyssey he spoke with Zeus every nine years or for nine years. He got his laws straight from Zeus himself. All autochthone Greeks!!!!Distortion is a crime!!!!!
You mast be jealous like hell!!!It's the first time such a thing like the Minoans were not Greeks ever heard!!!instead of calling people names learn the Truth,and stop ridicule your self like that!As if that bothers that the Minoans were Greeks . . Understand. Prove me otherwise if you want.
there is a historical, cultural and even racial continuity in the Aegean. For the Minoans world history says that they were Greeks.
Such novel views can be dangerous, and by association us back to very old Zionist propaganda that supposedly ancient Crete was Jewish.,...OR PERHAPS THEY WERE ALBANIANS?,OR EVEN TURKS!!!..OR DO YOU PREFER BLACKS?...You are really a pathetic distorter!
