Does the "Minoan myth" still stand up to scientific scrutiny? Since the work of Sir Arthur Evans at Knossos (Crete, Greece), the romanticized vision of the Cretan Bronze Age as an era of peaceful prosperity only interrupted by the catastrophic effects of natural disasters has captured the popular and scientific imagination. Its impact on the development of archaeology, archaeoseismology, and earthquake geology in the eastern Mediterranean is considerable. Yet, in spite of more than a century of archaeological explorations on the island of Crete, researchers still do not have a clear understanding of the effects of earthquakes on Minoan society. This volume, gathering the contributions of Minoan archaeologists, geologists, seismologists, palaeoseismologists, geophysicists, architects, and engineers, provides an up-to-date interdisciplinary appraisal of the role of earthquakes in Minoan society and in Minoan archaeology - what we know, what are the remaining issues, and where we need to go. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Archaeology and natural disasters|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85006514|zGreece|zCrete.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79150324-781 650 0 Paleoseismology|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh93003626|zGreece|zCrete.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /names/n79150324-781 650 0 Earthquakes|zGreece|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2009009297|zCrete|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n79150324-781|xHistory.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 0 Earthquake zones|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh97005977|zMediterranean Region|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85083230-781|xHistory.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 0 Minoans|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85085782|xSocial life and customs.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2001008851 650 7 Archaeology and natural disasters.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/813006 650 7 Paleoseismology.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1051569 650 7 Earthquakes.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/900899 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Earthquake zones.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 900898 650 7 Minoans|xSocial life and customs.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1023069 650 7 Minoans.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1023064 651 0 Crete (Greece)|xAntiquities.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85033942 651 0 Crete (Greece)|xCivilization.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh86003304 651 7 Greece|zCrete.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1207225 651 7 Mediterranean Region.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1239752 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 700 1 Jusseret, Simon,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ no2018003558|eeditor. 700 1 Sintubin, M.,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2001001385|eeditor. 776 08 |iPrint version:|tMinoan earthquakes.|dLeuven (Belgium) : Leuven University Press, [2017]|z9789462701052 |w(OCoLC)1006634593 830 0 Studies in archaeological sciences ;|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/no2009118779|v5. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1629086|zOnline eBook via EBSCO.
