I then went on to read your publication section: The Origin of the Sea Peoples. My previous readups on the Minoans and the Mediterranean world, left an impression that the Minoans and the later Mycenaean peoples were confined to the eastern part of this world with some trading links to the western parts of Mediterranean Europe. Your write up The Origin of the Sea Peoples conclusively shows that the whole of this region was one great civilisation!!! And , one corrects the lop-sided perception that ancient civilisations on a large scale were confined to areas from the eastern part of the Mediterranean eastwards - Minoans in Crete, eastwards to include Eygptians and Hittites and Mittani, and Sumerians/ Mesopotamia, and the Elamites etc in Iran, to the Indus Valley centres..........and then through the desserts of Central Asia to China( the last a little later!!!) The correct picture is one huge sweep of civilisations from Spain through the whole mediterranean world and then eastwards as detailed above. Thank you. The Minoans and their western reach all the way to Spain is geographically in Europe...........but I would love to know if these peoples were Europeans as we understand for later periods..........can you throw some light on this? You are a very valued addition to the GEC family!!! geveN Post Extras
