The Palaces Of Crete And Their Builders (1907)

""The Palaces of Crete and Their Builders"" is a historical and archaeological study of the Minoan civilization in Crete, written by Angelo Mosso and originally published in 1907. The book explores the architecture, art, and culture of the Minoans, who were one of the most advanced ancient civilizations in the Mediterranean world. Mosso examines the palaces of Knossos, Phaistos, and other important Minoan sites, discussing their construction, layout, and decoration. He also considers the role of the Minoan rulers and the society that supported them, as well as the influence of the Minoans on later civilizations. The book is richly illustrated with photographs, diagrams, and drawings, and provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of the Minoans and their remarkable achievements in art and architecture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
