CRETE'S Necroplitic so-called pallaces

[charles brough]

Could the so-called palace of Crete actually be a mosileum? A book proposing an alternate theory to the general picture of Ancient Crete was published a generation ago proposing it and I found it convincing. The thresholds were build of soft stone and show minimal wear, the "throne" was hardly imprissive enough for a monarch! There were almost no windows. And the religion could well have adopted doctrines of "home of the dead" structures from North of them where the mound builders had been building stone mosileums for centuries. The doctrine spread to Egypt, also, where the Ancient Egyptians began building huge temples to the dead.
