Minoans, who thrived on the island of Crete, are known for their advanced maritime trade networks and intricate palace complexes, such as the Palace of Knossos, which featured sophisticated plumbing and vibrant frescoes. They also had a unique writing system known as Linear A, which remains undeciphered. In contrast, the Mycenaeans, based on mainland Greece, primarily used Linear B, a script used for administrative purposes, and focused more on fortified palaces and warrior culture rather than the artistic and trade-oriented lifestyle of the Minoans.
They both were the first two cultures to be developed in Greece. (Mycenaeans were first because the only spoke greek.)
The decline of the Mycenaeans and Minoans was influenced by several factors, including natural disasters, invasions by external groups, and internal strife. However, if we consider reasons that did not contribute to their decline, we might point to sustained agricultural prosperity, which actually supported their economies. While the other factors led to their eventual downfall, a thriving agricultural base would have bolstered their societies rather than weakened them.
they reigned and traded in and around the aegean sea. they had both spent time sailing in the water. They both were the first two cultures to be developed in greece. (Mycenaeans were first because the only spoke greek.) They had very similiar pottery, religion: they both believed in 1 goddess, they had the same palace layout:open for all except a few rooms only for nobles rather than the common people, however, the Mycaneans were more focused on weaponry and military rather than the artsy Minoans which painted in very vivid colors. Mycaneans painted their hunts while Minoans didn't. They both: used metals, gold was for nobles, bronze was for tools,had small figurines made by hand for religious practices, head religious water, deep bathtubs to fit comfortably, writings were in linear arrangement but only Mycanean has been translated. They both traded and they were both in Greece
The Minoans likely created art for beauty as a reflection of their advanced society, valuing aesthetics and daily life over purely functional or religious purposes. Their art often depicted nature, leisure activities, and vibrant scenes, suggesting a cultural appreciation for harmony and enjoyment. Unlike prehistoric cave painters, who focused on survival, or ancient Egyptians, who emphasized religious and funerary art, the Minoans may have sought to express their identity and values through beauty. This emphasis on artistic expression indicates a sophisticated understanding of art as a means of enhancing everyday life rather than solely serving utilitarian or ceremonial functions.

The 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).

It has been stolen, rather than borrowed, from Spanish. The Spanish word cañon (a tube) is derived from a Latin word canna meaning reed.
Antonio borrowed the money from Shylock rather than lend it himself because his ships had not yet arrived therefore he had no money. He borrowed it for Bassanio, because Bassanio wanted to woo Portia.
Primarily because the Achaeans is not precise or clear. It was part of the Mycenaean civilization.
