What a spot for rowboats. and
w what wonder that sea power
had Its birth there.
Crete, the largest Of these
Aegean islands. was the cradle of
sen power.
The Idea evolved from the brain
Of King Minos of Crete some 5000
years before the time Of Christ.
Still sea power, or "thallocracy,"
as the Greeks called IL, was a
natural development for Crete
as natural rs self-defense-as
natural rs aggression.
The ships Of Crete enabled IL to
contact the civilization of Egypt
and Assyria. and to exchange its
products with the products of
these lands.
Thus the island kingdom of
Crete grew rich and powerful. rs
did In later days the island king
dom OF England and the island
kingdom of Japan.
The Phoenician md Carfan
pirates preyed upon the ships Of
Crete.
Waeships were built to defend
Crete's commerce.
rrade followed the Tag then.
ns IL does now. and the flag fol-
lowed trade.
The Cretans defeated the Carl
ans and took their islands.
And then the Cretans took
other islands and made them
dominions.
And finally the flood Of Cretan
conquest apparently overlooked
the mainland of Greece In tn e
early Mycenaean age.
EVERYTHING In these early
IL periods, however, IL see n
through the glass Of tradition
darkIy.
Most Of the "history" of these
prehistoric days comes 10 us by
means Of myths and fables.
But the myths always have an
element Of truth as their bases
and beginnings, and some of the
initial facts with relation %
Crete have been verified by the
scientific excavations which have
been conducted In Crete and In
Greece by expeditions from the
English and American colleges.
Tradition says that King Mlnos
ruled over Crete proper himself,
and gave his sons dominion over
the conquered islands Of the
Carians and the subjugated peo-
Piles of the mainland.
From Greece King Minos ex-
acted tribute not only OF money
but OF men and maidens.
