The Archaeological Context During the third and second millennia BCE, the first civilisations of Europe, the Minoan and Mycenaean, appeared around the Aegean, on its islands and on the mainland. A distinctive Minoan civilization emerged on Crete after 3100 BCE, but the Mycenaean was a later development, and came into existence on the Greek mainland around 1700-1600 BCE, fusing native elements and cultural influences from Crete. In the fifteenth century BCE, the Mycenaeans replaced the Minoans as the dominant force in the Aegean, but the Minoan civilisation persisted within Crete for another two hundred years. The Minoans The Minoans, a name given by Sir Arthur Evans to the population of Crete during the Bronze Age,[1] displayed a very distinctive material culture, which lasted for nearly two thousand years from 3100 BCE to 1050 BCE. [2] From early prehistory, several settlements emerged which eventually culminated in the formation of palatial centers that date from the beginning of the Middle Bronze Age in 1950 BCE, which were to develop later into centralised palace- based economies and complex social structures that dominated most of the island.

  • ARCL 0066: the Emergence of Bronze Age Aegean States
    UCL INSTITUTE OF ARCHAEOLOGY ARCL 0066: The Emergence of Bronze Age Aegean States 2019-2020 - Term 2 Undergraduate Year 2-3 option, 15 credits Coursework deadlines: Monday 21st February 2020, Monday 3rd April 2020 (TBC) Co-ordinator: Dr. Borja Legarra Herrero [email protected], Room 106 1 1. OVERVIEW Short Description This course provides a survey of Aegean prehistory from The Neolithic until c. 1500-1400 BC. It focuses on the origins of complex societies during the 3rd and 2nd millennium BC and the dynamics of the Minoan palatial societies that followed. It provides a broadly chronologically overview of the region’s long-term transformations and the remarkably rich data (material, iconographic and archival) on which interpretations are based. It encourages a thematic treatment, within a theoretically informed, problem-oriented framework, of major processes including: state formation, elaboration and collapse; production, trade and consumption in and beyond the Aegean; archaeologies of cult and death; the interpretation of symbols and images; and the place of the prehistoric Aegean within the wider Mediterranean and Near Eastern world. The course equally emphasises the need to understand how interpretations and data collection strategies have developed, and the impact this has had on accounts of Aegean prehistory.

  • Ecotourism Guide to NATURA 2000 Network Areas on Crete
    Ecotourism guide to NATURA 2000 network areas on Crete Be part of it, protect it! Operational Programme for Crete and the Aegean Islands Co-financed by Greece and the European Union Preface Dear friends, The past, present and future of Crete are inextricably bound up with its exceptional natural environment. Rich biodiversity, a significant number of endemic species, a variety of ecosystems and landscapes of outstanding natural beauty are what characterize our natural heritage. In acknowledging the value of our natural environment’s multiple functions as regards healthy living and quality of life, as well as in implementing our vision of sustainable development, Crete Regional Authority has made the protection, sound management and promotion of our island’s nature its top priority. The NATURA 2000 Network protected areas have a significant role to play in realising that aim, given that they act as key reserves for nature conservation throughout Europe. In publishing this “Ecotourism guide to NATURA 2000 network areas on Crete” we present the NATURA 2000 areas on Crete, highlighting their characteristics and stressing both their value and their prospects for growth. Sculpted by time and six thousand years of human history, our island’s nature is a common good each of us can enjoy, while also being under the obligation to protect it. We can only hope that through this guide we will all come to better know the NATURA 2000 protected areas, and understand the need to protect them.

  • THE CONTRIBUTION of CULTURE to the SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT of the MUNICIPALITY of HERAKLION DOI: 10.26341/Issn.2241-4002-2019-1A-6
    JOURNAL "SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT, CULTURE, TRADITIONS".................Volume 1a/2019 THE CONTRIBUTION OF CULTURE TO THE SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF THE MUNICIPALITY OF HERAKLION DOI: 10.26341/issn.2241-4002-2019-1a-6 Stylianos Stratantonakis Economist, Master in Sustainable Development, Harokopio University [email protected] Roido Mitoula Professor, Harokopio University of Athens [email protected] Helen Theodoropoulou Professor, Harokopio University of Athens [email protected] Panagiotis Kaldis Professor University of Western Attica [email protected] Abstract The purpose of this paper is to highlight the brand name of the Municipality of Heraklion through the use of its cultural heritage. As a first step an attempt was made to provide a complete description of the cultural heritage of the Municipality, through the recording of the material and intangible cultural elements. Subsequently an inquiry was made about the economic impacts of cultural tourism in the region and the signs, which are reflected by this type of tourism. In order to achieve these objectives, a bibliographic research was carried out and a questionnaire was distributed to three hundred (300) residents from the Municipality of Heraklion. For the summarization, the classification and the presentation of the primary data, the descriptive statistics methods were used. Specifically, in this paper, the percentages corresponding to the respondents’ answers to each question individually through tables and diagrams are presented, resulting in some conclusions. As it seems the overwhelming majority of the people that took part in inquiry, thinks that The County of Heraklion has a very important cultural heritage. In regard with the direction that the cultural tourism must develop in the region, it is to take place in the organization of cultural events throughout the year, the creation of modern and traditional hospitality facilities, better promotion of the region as a tourist attraction, cultural education programs and the pursuit of attraction of cultural tourism.

  • Messara Valley, Crete, Greece Responsible Partner
    CASCADE STUDY AREA 5: Messara Valley, Crete, Greece Responsible partner: TUC 1. General information The rapid development of Crete in the last 30 years has exerted strong pressures on many sectors of the region. The growth of agriculture in the Messara plain has strong impact on the water resources and ecosystem services of the area by substantially increasing water demand. The economy of the region is based on agriculture with intensive cultivation: mainly olive trees, grapes, citrus, and vegetables in green houses. The village Perion and its surrounding area was chosen as the study site for CASCADE experiments. The area is located at the boundary of the largest aquifer of Crete, at the foot of the Asterousia Mountains. The environment has the typical wild characteristics of Crete and receives natural pressures mainly due to the dry climate. Human pressures include interference with the natural water balance due to agricultural water pumping and overgrazing. 2. Geographical description The Messara Valley covers an area of 398 km2 with a mean altitude of 435 m. Messara comprises of a plain with east-west orientation, about 25 km long and 5 km wide, with a total area of 112 km2 and hedged with mountains on the north and south sides (Figure 1). The geomorphological relief is typical of a graben formation and the surface drops within 15 Km from 2,454 m asl on Psiloritis Mountain to 45 m asl at Festos. The Geropotamos River with a westward direction and the Anapodaris River with an eastward direction drain the homonymous catchments. The catchment area of the northern slopes is 160 km2 while the southern slopes constitute a catchment area of 126 km2.

  • Protogeometric and Geometric Crete
    PROTOGEOMETRIC AND GEOMETRIC CRETE Catharine Elizabeth Judson A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Classics in the School of Arts and Sciences. Chapel Hill 2018 Approved by: Donald Haggis Carla Antonaccio Sheila Dillon Jennifer Gates-Foster Herica Valladares © 2018 Catharine Elizabeth Judson ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Catharine Elizabeth Judson: Protogeometric and Geometric Crete Under the direction of Donald Haggis The Protogeometric period on Crete, generally the 10th and 9th centuries BCE, was characterized by a change in settlement patterns from small settlement clusters in Late Minoan IIIC to larger culture-regions defined by centralized and nucleated settlements linked to increasingly defined territories. Understanding the meaning of these changes in spatial structures and social organization, and their impact on later settlement patterns of the Cretan Early Iron Age requires a finer analytical scale and narrower temporal framework. It is, however, a necessary part of moving away from reductive historicizing narratives of palatial collapse or polis development prevalent in scholarship on Early Iron Age settlement development. Instead, reconstructing the material ways in which culture-regions were defined over the course of the Protogeometric period and beyond allows us to consider new approaches for tracking the early development of polities normally predicated on historical paradigms. This project gathers the published evidence for the Cretan Protogeometric period in order to develop new models for visualizing ways in which deliberately-constructed relationships between communities in shifting settlement systems acted as mechanisms for the definition of culture-regions.

  • Exploring the Birds and Backroads of Crete April 5 – 15, 2014 with Elissa Landre
    Crete April 5 – 15, 2014 Exploring the Birds and Backroads of Crete April 5 – 15, 2014 With Elissa Landre Ancient ruins, gorgeous mountain gorges, and fantastic birding can all be found on this very special trip. Our favorite Greek guide has designed this tour just for us. Join us next spring! With a temperate climate, Crete is more pristine than the mainland Greece and has a culture all its own. In addition to birding, we will explore several famous archeological sites, including Knossos and ancient Phaistos, the most important centers of Minoan civilization. Crete was once the center of the Minoan civilization (c. 2700–1420 BC), regarded as the earliest recorded civilization in Europe. Crete’s landscape is very special: defined by a high mountain range, deep valleys, fertile plateaus, and caves (including the mythological birthplace of the ancient Greek god, Zeus) Rivers cut deep, exceptionally beautiful gorges that create a rich presence of geological wealth and have been explored for their aromatic and medicinal plants since Minoan times. Populations of choughs, griffon vultures, and hawks find shelter at the steep cliffs. A fantastic variety of birds also are found on Crete: not only its resident bird species, which are numerous and include rare and endangered birds, but also the migrants who stop over on Crete during their journeys to and from Africa and Europe. The isolation of Crete from mainland Europe, Asia, and Africa is reflected in the diversity of habitats, flora, and avifauna. The richness of the surroundings results in an impressive bird species list and many unexpected surprises.
