Roots of European Civilization: Minoan and Mycenaean Cultural Forms.
This paper gives a brief historical overview of the Minoan civilization, and its successor, the Mycenaeans. The two cultures were primarily trade empires, though we remember them mostly through the epic war poems of Homer. The civilizations are not contrasted, but merely compared to show how elements of civilization carry over from era to era, even into our own. 7 pgs. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
