	Gods Graves Glyphs	Thanks BGHater for posting this topic. :') "Even when, during the respective Thera Conferences, individual scientists had pointed out that the magnitude and significance of the Thera eruption must be estimated as less than previously thought, the conferences acted to strengthen the original hypothesis. The individual experts believed that the arguments advanced by their colleagues were sound, and that the facts of a natural catastrophe were not in doubt... All three factors reflect a fantasy world rather than cool detachment, which is why it so difficult to refute the theory with rational arguments." -- Eberhard Zangger, "The Future of the Past: Archaeology in the 21st Century", pp 49-50.

If the eruption was so catastrophic why did the Minoan culture survive for an other couple of centuries? Why did the Minoans have an artistic and cultural revolution, aside from eating kids, see the Minotaur Myth?

Why did the Critas break off when Plato started to repeat the ILIAD.
