The people of Crete, particularly during the Minoan Civilization, primarily made their living through agriculture, trade, and crafts. They cultivated crops such as olives, grapes, and wheat, while also raising livestock. Additionally, Crete's strategic location in the Mediterranean facilitated extensive trade with other cultures, allowing them to exchange goods like pottery and textiles. Craftsmanship, particularly in pottery and Metallurgy, also contributed significantly to their economy.
