Summary

A critical aspect of Aegean archaeology centers on understanding the political and cultural boundaries that shaped Crete. A key study by Hallager examines the destruction of the Knossos palace in 1443 BC, analyzing its relationship to Kydonia as well as Kydonia's relations to Crete, thereby resolving key historical and cultural questions regarding the region. By exploring these specific dynastic connections, researchers gain insights into the complex social structures and territorial disputes of the 15th century BC, offering a fresh perspective on how political identities were constructed during this turbulent era. This work, supported by grants from the Swedish Research Council, helps to refine our understanding of Greek history before the Roman conquest.
