Sir Arthur Evans worked on Knossos, a Cretan Late Bronze Age palatial site, during the 20th C. CE and based on the bull imagery and labyrinth-like layout found there, connected it to the myth of the Minotaur and named its civilization Minoan after the mythical King Minos.

Ein doppelter Türrahmen, darüber 5 Delphine alas Wandmalereien, gerahmt von rinden mäandern.
#Wandmalerei aus der #Bronzezeit, (#Kreta). Die Interpretation, die dazu ich mal in der Uni hatte:
Delfine an die Wand bedeuten, dass hier Frauen herrschten. 🤦🏾♀️
Ein #Zirkelschluss. 🔄
Solche seltsamen Interpretationen gibt es in #Knossos viele 👇

Die Rekonstruktionen von #Knossos und der #Saalburg müssten nach meiner Einschätzung etwa im selben Zeitraum erfolgt sein.
Auch wenn man heute weiß, dass die Rekonstruktion der Saalburg nicht in jeder Hinsicht richtig war, war sie doch ein wissenschaftliches Vorhaben und ist ein Gegenbeispiel.

I wrote about the Cretan Hound and other ancient breeds in Origins of Dog Breeds, and in Roma Canes Mundi. A journey through time, myth, and fur. Some bonds are truly eternal… or almost. 🐾

The ever-intriguing ancient Minoans(+art) of the Bronze Age. Beautiful statues from the palace of Knossos, island of Crete. Bull-leaping frescoes, some found as far as Avaris among the ancient Hyksos, continue to spark debate. #history #bronzeage #knossos #avaris #egypt 📷 Alison Fisk 📷
