1	Mycenaean religion at Knossos Gulizio, Joann 25 October 2011 (has links) This dissertation examines the archaeological and textual evidence for religion at the site of Knossos during the Mycenaean phases of administration (LM II-LM IIIB1). Several methodological issues in the nature of the evidence are addressed. The Linear B documents, due to their economic nature, offer limited information about religion. Moreover, the tablets from Knossos belong to at least two different phases of administration. The archaeological evidence for the different phases of cult use is often difficult to assess given the continued use of the palace over an extended period of time. To address these issues, the evidence from Knossos is divided into two temporal phases so that the textual evidence can be closely examined alongside its contemporary archaeological evidence for cult. This process has allowed for a more accurate view of the religion at Knossos in the Late Bronze Age. An evolution in the religious beliefs and practices are evident in the material culture. The presence of Indo-European divinities into the Knossian pantheon by the newly-installed Greek-speaking elite population is apparent from the outset, while previous Minoan style shrines continue to be used. In the later phase, numerous Minoan divinities are included in ritual offerings, while some Greek divinities are now given local epithets. Also at this time, Minoan shrine types gradually go out of use, whereas bench sanctuaries (a shrine type common to both Minoans and Mycenaeans) become the norm. The overall nature of Mycenaean religious assemblages at Knossos represents a unique blend of both Minoan and Mycenaean religious beliefs and practices. / text Linear B Mycenaean religion Minoan religion Knossos Knossos (Extinct city)--Religion Civilization, Mycenaean Inscriptions, Linear B

7	Warification and minoanisation / Warificación and minoanización Knappett, Carl 10 April 2018 (has links) (PDF) Though distant in space and time, there are certain similarities between the processes of Warification and Minoanisation, the latter describing the uptake of Cretan (Minoan) materials and technologies across the Bronze Age southern Aegean. In both cases, recent scholarship challenges the assumption of an active core and passive periphery. Crucial to this challenge in the Minoan case is the recognition of the considerable variability concealed within the single term ‘Minoanisation’, with many regional and temporal differences in the degree of influence. In the Wari case, it appears that more work is needed to establish exactly if and how Warification was a complex, multi-stranded set of processes rather than a single, monolithic radiating influence. I argue that in both cases, regardless of the state of the evidence, we badly need new ways of tackling regional interaction and cultural transmission, and suggest that networks, learning, and communities of practice represent promising ways forward. / A pesar de estar distante en tiempo y espacio, existen ciertas similitudes entre los procesos de warificación y de minoanización, el último describe el consumo de material y tecnología cretense a través de la Edad de Bronce del sur del Egeo. En ambos casos, recientes investigaciones desafían la suposición de un núcleo activo y una periferia pasiva. Crucial para este desafío en el caso de Minoa, es el reconocimiento de una considerable variabilidad oculta dentro del único término «minoanización», con muchas diferencias regionales y temporales en el grado de influencia. En el caso de los wari, parece que es necesario más exploración para establecer exactamente, si y como, la warificación fue un conjunto de procesos complicados y aislados en vez de una única influencia monolítica irradiada. Sostengo que en ambos casos, independiente del estado de la evidencia, es necesario nuevas maneras deabordar la interacción regional y la transmisión cultural. Sugiero también que redes de trabajo, aprendizaje y comunidades de prácticas representan auspiciosas maneras de seguir avanzando.

8	Minoan trade: aspects and ambiguities Kieser, Deanne 31 March 2005 (has links) The following dissertation considers the main aspects of trade during each phase of Minoan development from its beginnings in Early Minoan times (3500 BC) until the end of Minoan period in 1430 BC. The work concentrates largely on the commodities exchanged, the development of transportation and perceived trade routes as well as the role of the palaces once they were established. The theories on the Minoan Thalassocracy and colonisation are also discussed. The evidence used is mainly archaeological, which is able to trace the movement of non-perishable materials such as pottery and metals. Reference is also made to contemporary Near Eastern texts and art, as well as the Minoan Linear A and Mycenaean Linear B documents. / Biblical and Ancient Studies / M.A. (Ancient History) Aegean Bronze Age Minoan Crete Cyclades Cyprus Egypt Greece Hagia Triada Keftiu Knossos Levant Linear A Linear B Mediterranean Mallia Neopalatial Palace administration Phaistos Prepalatial Protopalatial Thalassocracy Trade Uluburun Zakros 939.18 Bronze age -- Egypt Bronze age -- Greece -- Crete Minoans -- Greece -- Crete Civilization, Aegean Knossos (Extinct city) Crete (Greece) -- Antiquities

10	Early Iron Age Cementeries at Knossos: The Appreciation of Oriental Imports and their Imitations by Knossian Society Antoniadis, Vyron 09 July 2012 (has links) The contextual study of the oriental imports and their local imitations discovered in the Early Iron Age cemeteries at Knossos is of great importance, as it reveals the attitude of the Knossian society towards imports coming from the Near East during a period that lasted more than four centuries. Another important part of this study is a coherent analysis of the distribution of the fully published tombs and cemeteries. The main argument of this thesis is that there were different elite groups at Knossos which were in competition with each other and, for this reason, used different clusters of tombs and/or cemeteries. It is argued that the oriental imports and their close copies were used by those different elite groups in order to mark political and ideologies differences. / El estudio contextual de las importaciones orientales y sus imitaciones producidas en Creta, descubiertas en los cementerios de la Edad del Hierro temprana de Cnosós, es de gran importancia porque nos revela cómo la sociedad de Cnosós reaccionó a las importaciones procedentes de Oriente Próximo durante un período que duró más de cuatro siglos. Otra parte importante de este estudio es un análisis coherente de la distribución de las tumbas y los cementerios cuyos datos han sido publicados en su totalidad y su asociación con las importaciones. El argumento principal de esta tesis es que hubo distintos grupos de élite que competían unos con otros y por eso utilizaron tumbas y cementerios distintos. Estos grupos también utilizaron las importaciones orientales y sus imitaciones con el fin de marcar sus diferencias, políticas e ideológicas.
