Greece was also by the sea with many natural harbors. The first Greek civilization was that of the Minoans on the island of Crete just south of Greece.

The Minoans are often characterized by their advanced maritime trade networks and extensive commerce across the Mediterranean, evidenced by archaeological finds of imported goods such as pottery and metals. Their palaces, like Knossos, feature complex storage facilities for trade goods rather than fortifications for defense, suggesting a focus on economic prosperity over military strength. Additionally, the absence of significant fortifications and weaponry in Minoan sites implies a society that prioritized trade relations and peaceful interactions with neighboring cultures.
Early civilizations were more likely to fight over resources such as fertile land, water sources, and access to trade routes. Control of agricultural land was crucial for sustenance, leading to conflicts over territory. Additionally, competition for resources like minerals and timber could spark wars. These struggles often reflected broader social and economic needs within growing populations.

The Minoans were a powerful sea faring people. They lived on Crete, which is an island in the Aegean Sea; the Aegean Sea is located west of Turkey and southeast of Greece. The Minoans lived and dominated Crete from around 3000 BC to 1500 BC. The dates aren't exact though. The Minoans dominated trade in the Eastern Mediterranean. They had a deep culture in the arts. They are assumed to be a peaceful people for excavations done the ruins showed that there were no fortifications. The demise of the Minoans is unknown. Some believe that the natural disasters that had struck the Minoans in their last years is what led to their downfall. Some believe that people from Greece had taken over.

The Minoan culture was absorbed or taken over by the Mycenaean Greeks in about 1450 BC.
The Minoans and Mycenaeans used the same script, the so-called Linear-A script developed by the Minoans. The Mycenaeans only adapted it to the needs of the Mycenaean language. They also in a way shared culture, religion and art with the Minoans, in the sense that the Mycenaeans after conquering the Minoans, took over - with only some adaptions - the Minoan culture.
