∙ 9y agoThe Minoan Civilization (2.700 BC) preceded the Mycenaean civilization(1.600). The main difference was that the Minoans were a very peaceful civilization (nowhere in their art battles or anything war related is depicted, only festivities, which is somewhat unique) and they were more sea-orientated. They used the same bronze age weapons but Minoans preferred the bow (probably because their mean occupation besides naval trade was hunting) rather than single or double edged small swords (the symbol of the Minoans, the double-edged axe, was a ceremonial weapon).
