The Queen’s Bath and its reconstruction in the Palace of Knossos, which belongs to the Minoan civilization. 16th century BC. Crete, Greece. The Minoan civilization, which emerged in 3,500 BC, lived its brightest periods between 2700-1450 BC. Later, it lost its former power and Mycenaean culture began to spread on the island. The name Minos was coined by British archaeologists excavating in Crete.
According to Ancient Greek Mythology, Minos is the son of Zeus and Europa, who gave the European continent its name, and is the legendary king of the island of Crete
