Elite Minoan Architecture
Its Development at Knossos, Phaistos, and Malia
by Joseph W. Shaw
This book’s aim is to trace the development of elite Minoan architectural forms that arose during the late Protopalatial (Middle Minoan II) and early Neopalatial periods (Middle Minoan III). The study concentrates on the older, larger sites of Knossos, Malia and Phaistos where those forms seem to have originated.
The goal of this book is to trace the development of elite Minoan architectural forms that arose during the late Protopalatial (Middle Minoan II) and early Neopalatial periods (Middle Minoan III). The study of this architectual development concentrates on the older, larger sites of Knossos, Malia, and Phaistos where those very forms seem to have originated. Other Minoan towns and palaces in Crete are referenced when appropriate.
