the volcanic eruption from thera sent a tsunami toward crete, and after the tsunami hit them, the remaining minoans were conquered by the mycenaeans. I don't know what their legacy was, i have the same question
Mycenean invasion, Volcano, or a tsunami caused by the volcano
Two prominent theories regarding the collapse of the Minoan civilization around 1450 BC are the volcanic eruption of Santorini and the invasion by Mycenaean Greeks. The eruption, which occurred around 1600 BC, likely caused significant environmental and economic disruptions, including tsunamis and agricultural decline. Additionally, the Mycenaeans, who had been influenced by Minoan culture, may have exploited the weakened state of the Minoans, leading to their eventual conquest and assimilation.
the thing that may have caused the minoans to lose thier strength is that they were not powerfull enothgth
The Minoans were an extremely civilized and technological society that had running water, a huge, labyrinthine city on the island of Crete, and a well-established trade business based on their powerful navy. The Minoans believed in the Mother Goddess. Considered to be the society that the tales of Atlantis, and the story of the Minotaur come from, the Minoans were thought to have been destroyed by the eruption of a nearby volcano on the island of Salamis. If their entire civilization wasn't destroyed at this point, it would have been easy for the Myceneans to enter their unwalled cities at this point (which were normally defended by their navy, which would have been destroyed by the huge tsunamis the volcano caused) and enslave the Minoans and destroy their society completely.
The Minoan civ was (probably) destroyed by a major earthquake and the tsunamis that followed.There is no evidence that Minoans and Mycenaens ever fought, it was a gradual transition from one civ to the other.

Current belief is that the Minoan civilization was destroyed as a result of an explosive eruption of Mt Thera (or Santorini) which resulted in a pyroclastic flow which blanketed the island of Santorini and caused a tsunami which overwhelmed Crete.
There are several theories, such as that the Minoans on what is currentely Crete, perished by famine, while other scientists spectulate that a volcano on the island of Thera (north of Crete) erupted and caused such massive tidal waves and amounts of falling ash that the knigdom drowned and suffocated. (May have created the legend of the underwter city Atlantis)Other scientists still beleive that an invasion after the eruption on the Island of Thera destroyed the Minoan Civilization.

I don't know what you mean, but in ancient times by boat and a certain one that most Greeks used. Also there civilization ended suddenly ended when a great volcanic explosion on a near island caused many disasters that caused many civilizations to end, including the Minoans. Search up the Minoans end on Wikipedia for in depth research on there destruction.
