Knossos
Date Added: 19th May 2018

Visited: Yes on 24th Apr 2018. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 2 Access 5
Knossos submitted by Thorgrim on 12th Nov 2004. The Minoan Palace of Knossos, Crete. Dating from the Minoan Bronze Age, the first palace was built around 2000BC and subsequently destroyed by earthquake. This later palace from the Neopalatial period had 1,200 rooms on five levels. In 1450 BC, it too was destroyed in a disaster caused by the volcanic eruption on Thera (Santorini) which destroyed that island and the Minoan civilisation. The restoration is by Sir Arthur Evans who commenced excavation in 1900.

Phourni
Date Added: 19th May 2018
Site Type: Chambered Tomb
Country: Greece (Crete)
Visited: Yes on 24th Apr 2018. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 4 Access 4
Phourni submitted by AlexHunger on 5th Oct 2004. Phourni Tholos B. This is an earlier construction, ca 2000 BCE, which has since collapsed. It also has a side chamber, but no external passage. Instead it has a round benchlike structure inside the circumference. This may be a useful comparison to the intact Tholos A.
