Quiz Question: What ancient civilization was based on Crete?
The given options are:
- Mycenaean
- Minoan
- Hittite
Correct Answer: Minoan
Info: The ancient Minoans were Europe’s first advanced civilization, constructing massive building complexes, creating sophisticated art, and inventing writing systems. The culture existed for more than 2,000 years and may have been brought down in part by the massive volcanic eruption of Thera, on present-day Santorini, another Aegean island.
