Ancient Minoan refers to the civilization that flourished on the island of Crete during the Aegean Bronze Age, approximately from 2600 to 1100 BCE. The term "Minoan" specifically describes the culture, art, and archaeological findings associated with this civilization, named after the legendary King Minos. Therefore, while ancient Minoan pertains to the culture and people of ancient Crete, they are not synonymous; Minoan is a descriptor of the civilization that developed on the island of Crete.
