Thoroughly researched, Rodney Castleden's Minoans: Life in Bronze
Age Crete here sues the results of recent research to produce a
comprehensive new vision of the peoples of Minoan Crete. Since Sir
Arthur Evans rediscovered the Minoans in the early 1900s, we have
defined a series of cultural traits that make the 'Minoan
personality': elegant, graceful and sophisticated, these nature
lovers lived in harmony with their neighbours, while their fleets
ruled the seas around Crete. This, at least, is the popular view of
the Minoans. But how far does the later work of archaeologists in
Crete support this view? Drawing on his experience of being
actively involved in research on landscapes processes and
prehistory for the last twenty years, Castleden writes clearly and
accessibly to provide a text essential to the study of this
fascinating subject.
