Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Provides a guide to the island's history and an introduction to some of the lesser known delights which await the visitor. Rich memories of the unique past have been unearthed by the archaeologists and are now on public display in the Heraklion Museum. Yet many of these finds still retain an air of mystery. Exquisite figurines of half-clad females entwined with live snakes. Bronze double-axes too thin to have been used in anger. Athletes vaulting over fearsome bulls, watched crowds of rouged and red-lipped females. Strange sights to our modern eyes. In this book many of these age-old mysteries are considered afresh, whilst some of the lesser known sites of Crete, many of them off the normal tourist route, are to be found. All will provide the reader with unforgettable memories of this lovely island.
