The World's Greatest Civilizations: The History and Culture of the Minoans , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 62min
Explains the links between Minoan culture and religion with the Ancient Greeks. Details how the Minoans looked and dressed and what a day in the life of a Minoan may have been like. Explains the collapse of Minoan society,and whether it formed the basis for the myth of Atlantis Nearly 2,500 years after the golden age of Athens, people across the world continue to be fascinated by the ancient Greeks. But who did the ancient Greeks look up to? The answer to that question can be found in Homer's The Odyssey, in which Odysseus makes note of "a great town there, Cnossus, where Minos reigned." It was perhaps the earliest reference to the Minoan civilization, a mysterious, ancient civilization that historians and archaeologists still puzzle over, but a civilization that renowned historian Will Durant described as "the first link in the European chain." Nearly 2,000 years before Homer wrote his epic poems, the Minoan civilization was centered on the island of Crete, a location that required the Minoans to be a regional sea power. And indeed they were, stretching across the Aegean Sea from about 2700-1500 BC, with trade routes extending all the way to Egypt. The Minoans may have been the first link in the "European chain", leading to the ancient Greeks and beyond, but questions persist over the origins of the civilization, the end of the civilization, and substantial parts of its history in between, including its religion and buildings. The World's Greatest Civilizations: The History and Culture of the Minoans shines a light on this Bronze Age civilization, providing a comprehensive overview of the reign of the Minoans and their lasting influence on European art, culture, trade, and more. Along with a description of Minoan life, you will learn about the civilization some have dubbed the first Europeans. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Maria Chester.

Potiphar's Wife (eBook, ePUB)
One of the Bible's most notorious women longs for a love she cannot have in this captivating novel from the award-winning author of Isaiah's Legacy. "Mesu Andrews yet again proves her mastery of weaving a rich and powerful biblical story!"-Roseanna M. White, author of A Portrait of Loyalty Before she is Potiphar's wife, Zuleika is the daughter of a king and the wife of a prince. She rules the isle of Crete alongside her mother in the absence of their seafaring husbands. But when tragedy nearly destroys Crete, Zuleika must sacrifice her future to save the Minoan people she loves. Zuleika's father believes his robust trade with Egypt will ensure Pharaoh's obligation to marry his daughter, including a bride price hefty enough to save Crete. But Pharaoh refuses and gives her instead to Potiphar, the captain of his bodyguards: a crusty bachelor twice her age, who would rather have a new horse than a Minoan wife. Abandoned by her father, rejected by Pharaoh, and humiliated by Potiphar's indifference, Zuleika yearns for the homeland she adores. In the political hotbed of Egypt's foreign dynasty, her obsession to return to Crete spirals into deception. When she betrays Joseph-her Hebrew servant with the face and body of the gods-she discovers only one love is worth risking everything.- Shop: buecher

The Phaistos Disc and Antikythera Mechanism: The History of the Most Mysterious Artifacts from Ancient Greece , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 122min
Nearly 2,000 years before Homer wrote his epic poems, the Minoan civilization was centered on the island of Crete, a location that required the Minoans to be a regional sea power. And indeed they were, stretching across the Aegean Sea from about 2700-1500 BCE, with trade routes extending all the way to Egypt.The Minoans may have been the first link in the “European chain”, leading to the Ancient Greeks and beyond, but questions persist over the origins of the civilization, the end of the civilization, and substantial parts of their history, including their religion and buildings. All of this is largely because their written language, known today as “Linear A”, remains undeciphered, and among the more enigmatic finds of this truly enigmatic culture was a small disk-shaped object excavated among the ruins of the Minoan city of Phaistos in 1908. The disc, which has since become known simply as the “Phaistos Disc”, contains a number of pictographic symbols that were unrecognized by the scholars who first laid eyes on the object and remain unknown in the more than 100 years since. The contents of the Phaistos Disc, like the Minoan language of Linear A, remain unclear, but that is not for lack of trying by a plethora of scholars, some more credible than others. Many different theories have been advanced, but there is still no consensus concerning its origins or even if it was intended to be writing.Discovering ancient shipwrecks hasn’t been a novelty for thousands of years, but when artifacts were salvaged from a Roman shipwreck off the Greek island of Antikythera in 1900, the discovery of one set off one of the great mysteries of antiquity. When sponge divers investigated the shipwreck, they found the kind of items often associated with such discoveries, including marble statues, pottery, jewelry, and coins. ungekürzt.
