Here is the website that I found about Minoan Cretan art:
http://www.crete-holidays.net/cretan_art_eng.html
The Cretan art originate in the Minoan period in 2500 B.C. In the early Minoan period, the Cretan civilization got ahead of the near contries. The Cretan even traded the Cretan art for hundreds and hundreds of years. The excavations that we discovered show that life on Cretan was about 5000 years ago. It means that there was only alittle finding is related to relagions, and there aren't any temples or important religious monuments were exposed. Nowadays the influence of the Greek Orthodox Church is present in many ways. We think that maybe this was the reason that the Greeks are not the trade people as in the past. And the website has a travel of five days of Cretan art, and there are some beautiful art pictures there.
