The Minoan civilization was an Aegean Bronze Age civilization on the island of Crete and other Aegean islands which flourished from about 2600 to 1100 BC.

Minoan civilization began on the island of Crete around 3000 BC. It lasted for about 1500 years before being succeeded by the Greeks. The Minoan capital was Knossos, and Sir Arthur Evans discovered the Palace of Minos there. The name 'Minoan' is derived from 'Minos'.
