A (very brief) history of the Minoan people of Bronze Age Crete. Help keep LTAMB going by subscribing to Liv's Patreon for bonus content!


CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault. Given it's fiction, and typically involves gods and/or monsters, I'm not as deferential as I would be were I referencing the real thing.
