Tell me what you know about the Minoans
>>43161787>handled snakes>had their tits outWaitasec is that a cat on her hat??
>>43161831They were very mysterious
>>43161787>>43162179They were Sumerian etc. colonists, the Sea Peoples. I think the skirt is a refashioned kaunakes mantle.
>>43162228kaukanes*, what the fuck ever.
>>43162179It's not that mysterious. Snakes are the nervous system. The cat is a symbol of civilization and that can be a symbol of elevated mind. When I look at it I see a symbol of integrating the animal. They weren't too far removed from that time and considering the lack of available knowledge and context it seems like something I would make if I were living according to the dirt instead of plastic. And tits are nice. Everyone likes tits.

>>43161787They probably practiced child sacrifice. Also rememer skimming through something talking about some Magna Mater, fertility, earth goddess cult, but could be misremembering entirely.Though there seems to be a lot of overlap with ancicnet goddess cults and sacrificing kids.
>>43161787They were one of the last to go matrilineal civilizations of any real heft. Arguably, they had a much more peaceable civilization for being run by women. The religious cult also had an egalitarian cabinet of priests and priestesses.
>>43161787Jews, probably
>>43161787Not a lot is known. Probably Phoenicians. I know they had indoor plumbing which is wild.
