pantelis Posted June 28, 2019 Hi to all , i want to share one of my new creations this month the other one i will be post it to the pirates theme... Knossos palace in Crete , Greece inspired my creation. Some words from Wikipedia i will copy here to understand the history of Knossos. ''The site of Knossos was discovered in 1878 by Minos Kalokairinos. The excavations in Knossos began in 1900 by the English archaeologist Sir Arthur Evans (1851–1941) and his team, and continued for 35 years. Its size far exceeded his original expectations, as did the discovery of two ancient scripts, which he termed Linear A and Linear B, to distinguish their writing from the pictographs also present. From the layering of the palace Evans developed an archaeological concept of the civilization that used it, which he called Minoan, following the pre-existing custom of labelling all objects from the location Minoan. Since their discovery, the ruins have undergone a history of their own, from excavation by renowned archaeologists, education, and tourism, to occupation as a headquarters by governments warring over the control of the eastern Mediterranean in two world wars. This site history is to be distinguished from the ancient. '' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Atilio Posted July 5, 2019 This looks great, like a maquette in an exhibition, I have also visited Knossos, and this gives back the feeling of the ancient ruins under the dry air of Greece during the summer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
