The Minoans were the first people to "settle down" in Greece. they were rugged people, so when the Mycenaean came they tought them sea trade, a religion, a language and overall improved their life to become more civilized. The Minoans were more uncivilized people, where as the Mycenaean were more civilized. ______________________________________________________________________ Actually, I believe it's the other way around- The Minoans were very civilized and advanced (think running water and the real-life Atlantis) and the Myceneans were uncivilized "barbarians." The Minoans were a highly developed, very intelligent society that had improved painting, fresco making, travel, boat building, and pot making, as well as developing a huge trade system and navy, and "creating" running water.
