How relevant! Thank you for sharing this fascinating article. It seems many things happened in pre-history earlier that we thought!

I have visited several key archaeological sites in Crete, so this is really interesting additional info. I have notes and photos for short piece on the New Palace at Knossos, and these finds go a little way to explaining how the Minoans were so advanced so early, as it seem they had quite a head start— (coming very soon to Signifier)
