Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -It is likely, says Stamatoyannopoulos, that the Minoans descended from Neolithic populations that migrated to Europe from the Middle East and Turkey. Archaeological excavations suggest that early farmers were living in Crete by around 9, 000 years ago, so these could be the ancestors of the Minoans.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Minoans were not only farmers of olives, but fine craftsmen, making pieces of jewelry, pottery, seals and figurines. Their bronze work places this civilization in the Bronze Age. At the height of their civilization, between 2, 000-1400 BC, the Minoans developed a palace-centered civilization.
