Greece. I recoredrecorded most of
Entry #1: Knossos c. 20th century B.C.
My first stop was Knossos. I learned that Knossos was the capital of the Minoan civilization. I noticed that its structures were similar to the labyrinth that King Minos said to have built. I passed the palace on Crete (Crete was an island) at Knossos a few times, and when the king wasn’t there I got a chance to go into a few of the rooms. It was a huge palace, the bathrooms, living rooms, and bedrooms were all very elegant throughout the structure. There were people selling food and a lot of trading was happening along the coast. They were trading pottery and jewelry made of gold and silver.

Entry #2: Mycenae c. 1600 B.C.
Today I went to Mycenae. Palaces were built on hills and surrounded by gigantic stone walls. There were many tombs built into the hillsides that I past while I was touring the city. I saw a lot of pottery while I was in town, as well. What I did not notice were very many farms. To me it seem that Greece isnt' all that rich in agriculture. Many people were sailing today, trading goods I think. I'm pretty sure that is how all of these people survived since there wasn't much room for farms. A lot of the homes I saw were plain and simple. Almost all of the families I saw and met owned slaves.
Sparta c. 1300 B.C.
When I got to Sparta I saw that there were a lot of women strong and fit. Young children were there as well, but I learned that all males were taken by the city to join the military. They had to be disciplined to later on be in the Spartan military and serve in the wars. I did try some of the famous black Spartan broth; it was a combination of pork broiled in animal blood, salt and vinegar. All of the Spartan I did meet had lived there their entire lives, never leaving because they were discouraged from traveling, they might encounter ideas dangerous to the stability of the state. There wasn’t any type of music or paintings, pottery, or literature and art because the only art the Spartans liked was the art of war. Any other type of art was not respected.
