The Minoan Civilization was a civilization lost for years and is belived to may be the lost city of Atlantis. It was a rich civilization buried under a hill of dust which is believed to have beeen caused by a great eruption on Crete by its volcano. This volcano eruption was told to have cause tsunamis through the ocean, burring the land, and burring it in dust. The eruption was guessed to have been so bad that the smoke traveled around the world givinng of days of darkness in which crops didnt seem to grow. Another factor of the Minoan Civilization was that they were very peaceful and didn't like to fight at all. there lives were full of peace wisdom and wealth and is a great mystery for all to search. It is believed that the minoans knew of the eruption before hand because not many bodies were found. Also something equisit found about the minoans is that they had running water and there houses were like mantions. They are a very intresting group of people to research so i advise checking them out.

However the myceneans were a volgor group of people. they loved to fight and cause trouble and seize power. another prediction about the downflal of the minoans is that the myceneans took over there land and mixed their cultures.
