1. Evans ‘found’ the Minoan society.
2. He wrote the Minoan timeline.
3. He unearthed the palace at Knossos.
4. After he unearthed the palace, it started to deteriorate, so he started to re-build it.
5. Once he rebuilt it, it was impossible to tell the ancient from the new, so today historians have a hard time knowing what was really there before he ‘fixed’ it.
6. He also had his assistant take a daily log of what they were doing.
5 ways in which Evens influenced views of Cretan and Mycenaen
1. He divided the periods of the Bronze age into 3 distinct sections ( similar to those of the Egyptians)the Early, Middle, and Late.
2. Evens also influenced many scholars to think that these civilizations used wrighting that were pictures and bases their wrighting back to the cave dwellers which he has refered to their wrighting as the "raindeer period" and which these picture were to represent alphabetiform.
3.He made his readers now that a thousand years before the arrivial of classical Greece the Cretans had already passed through the stages of evolution and into a highly developed style of script.Which was found to be greek but is though to be an even more difficult process of which evens findings were the base.
4.Evens finding made the study of anthropology to be known as the study of primative or lower culture from his later lectures in Oxford, hes was also responsible to explore the transition from lower to highier forms of human existance.
5.He made it clear in his lecture at Oxford (1st) that the Crete civilization had two forms of script which are now call linear A and linear B which set the base for research of other parts or discoveries of the Crete civilizatoins languge or form of script.

1) Evans found intricate maze of buildings, pottery, pillars and frescoes when he uncovered ruins at Knossos.
2) He created the Minoan timeline, which divided the periods of the bronze age Cretan culture into three sections : the Early, Middle and Late Minoan.
3) Directed the chief to assistant keep a daily log of each day’s findings.
4) Evans showed what not to do when he reconstructed the site, combining the ancient looks with the looks of his time, because the weathering eroded the findings.
5) He displayed what is not a good idea and now portions of new sites elsewhere are left untouched so that if later generations have better technology they can see for themselves.
-Tatiana Dixon
Provide 5 ways Evans influeced scholarly views of Cretan and Mycenaen civilization
1)Evans founded the palace of minos and its work being uncovered was almost complete by1903.
2)It was Evans who divided the time line of the bronze age into three differnet times being the early, middle and late minoan.
3)In "The Palace of minos at Knossos" Evans wishes to convince his readers that the Minoan civilization had developed the first complex and civilized for of writing above other civilizations of that time.
4)In 1950 the liner writing found in Crete was found to be Greek.
5)The fact that Evans used reconstruction tactics was condemned by modern day archaeologist due to the realization that our future counterparts may better understand the situation in which took place at sed location.

if we don't turn it in by 10:00 then we may post it ourselves and please correct me if I'm wrong
Evans influenced Cretan and Mycenaen civilization by:
1. excavated in Crete in 1899
2. found "Palace of Minos"
3. conceived the Minoan timeline: the Early, Middle, and Late Minoan
4. popularized the world of Aegean civilization
5. rebuilding the site at Knossos
umm.. I don't know what you meant anonymous but i think you only post it on the blog AFTER everyone sent it to her (10pm) and if it's late you email it to her anyway, and also post it on the blog.
Sir Aurthur Evans influeced the way people thought about the Cretan and Mycenaen civilizations by 1. He created a Minoan timeline with the basics still in use today. 2. He proved that there actually was a sophisticated civilization where Greek mythology said there was. 3. He helped to introduce a scientific way of archeology. 4. He named the civilization of the bronze age that lived in Crete (the Minoans). 5. He showed (acidentally) that you can't mix the past and present when trying to perserve a historical site.

Tatiana- I liked how you phrased your answers! You kept on one part of the article, too.-Zarah
Hey first anonimus-you only needed 5! you're making the rest of us look bad!Good job, though-Zarah
Provide 5 ways Evans influenced scholarly views of Cretan and Mycenaen civilization.
1. Evan used the myths of Theseus and the Minotaur to guide him to Crete, where he found the “Place of Knossos”. He started excavating the “Place of Knossos” in 1899 and began to find artifacts like pottery, pillars and frescoes. He named the palace “Palace of Minos” and by the end of 1903 he had excavated most of the palace.
2. Published a book in 1921 called “The Palace of Minos at Knossos.”
3. Divided the periods of the Bronze Age Cretan culture into three distinct sections. The sections were Early, Middle, and Late Minoan. This is like the Egyptian dynastic division, which we learned about earlier in this year; Old, Middle, and New Kingdoms.
4. Popularized the world of Aegean civilization. His chief assistant kept a basic daily log of the excavations and because of that Evans helped improve the scientific approach to the excavation process.
5. Found two baked clay tablets with two types of writing on them. The writings were called Linear A and Linear B. Evans was positive that the Minoan civilization developed the first complex and civilized form of writings but later on a man named Michael Ventris, who explained that the linear writing found in Crete was actually Greek, proved him wrong.
-Mallory Caillaud-Jones
5 Ways Sir Evans influenced views on Cretan & Minoan.
1.He gave the name “Minoan” to the Bronze Age Crete.
2.He wrote his own book called The Palace of Minos at Knossos regarding his findings.
3.Sir Evans divided the Bronze Age into 3 periods. Early, Middle, and Late Minoan.
4.He left a daily log from excavations explaining all of his findings. He used a more scientific way rather than the way he was taught.
5.He reconstructed the ruins of Knossos, which led scholars to think he wanted to cover up the ancient world with modern day buldings.

1. One of the ways Arthur Evans influenced the scholarly views on Cretan/Mycean civilization, is that he used myths to help him find where Crete was located. He started to dig in earnest in 1899, and the ruins of Knossos were spectacular. There were some small interruptions in his work, but in 1921 he published the first volume his most famous work, The Palace of Minos at Knossos. By getting this information down, most scholars in the future could learn and analyze from the findings.
2. Sir Arthur Evans is also a significant figure in the fields of anthropology and archeology. He conceived the time of the Minean timeline by dividing the periods of the Bronze Age Cretan culture into three distinct regions: the Early, the Middle, and the Late Mineon. This proves to have helped many scholars after his time, because this division of time has been revised a little, but basically remains the same.
3. Sir Evans also popularized the world of Aegean Civilization and brought it to life by years of work on the elaborate ruins of Crete. Under his command, his chief assistant kept a basic daily log of the excavations, which is a more scientific approach that he took than previous archaeologists.By doing this the correct way, it helps scholars analyze, make conclusions, and have a more accurate data to base their research on.
4. After all of the things mentioned that Evans was, he also represents a great example of what NOT to do in archaeological excavation and restoration. After unearthing the palace ruins at Knossos, the weather began to erode the finds. So Evans then set on a plan of protection and reconstruction. This rebuilding of Knossos took place with contemporarymaterials out of Evan's imagination. When it was done, the palace had a striking resemblance to Art Deco, a style that was common during his times. This is highly disapproved by modern scholars/archaeologists because an onlooker cannot tell the difference between which is the the ancient building or the facsimile(copy).
5. Evan's influence is a reminder of the dangers of mixing modern day views into an ancient world. Since he made he made the mistake of re-creating new buildings over original ruins, it gave modern day scholars the idea to leave a portion of the excavated site, so later generations with better technology, could gain more knowledge than there would have originally been.
~Fabiola Enriquez
Hey I'm never sure if I have to e-mail it AND post it...so here is my lovely post.
-Evans thought of the Minoan timeline, separating everything into “Late, “Middle”, or “Early” periods.
-He pretty much rebuilt the palace ruins in Knossos in the art deco style.
-He rebuilt the temples in a way where you could not tell what was old and what was new.
-He found two forms of writing style called “Linear A” and “Linear B”.
-He shows how people want to believe that they discovered the greatest thing ever, when they really didn’t.
5 ways Evans influenced scholarly views of Cretan and Mycenaean civilization are:
1. He started excavating on Crete just a few years after Minos Kalokairinos found it and proceeded to uncover more ruins and reconstruct the palace.
2. He named the ruins at Knossos the "Palace of Minos" and started calling the civilization of Crete the "Minoan" civilization.
3. He made a Minoan timeline that split the periods of Bronze Age Cretan culture into 3 parts; These parts were call the Early, Middle, and Late Minoan.
4.One of the less positive things he did was his protection and reconstruction of the palace ruins. He rebuilt it in a way that was different from how it was found and how it was supposed to look.
5. He discovered two forms of script, Linear A and Linear B, that he claims was the most complex and civilized form of writing at the time.
-Garrett Steed
Charisse Johnson
5 ways that Evans influenced the scholarly views of Cretan and Mycenaean civilizations are that
1 he reminded everyone to respect other people’s culture when they were excavating the land.
2 his professor found a lot of things while excavating in Mycenae and that got him into it.
3 He brought the Greek mythology to Crete .
4 He excavated without looking amateur-ish like most excavators from his time
5 He made the first Cretan timeline that for the most part, is still intact today
1. Gave the name Minoans to the civilization of Crete (during Bronze Age), after finding the ruins at Knossos which he named the Palace of Minos.
2. Taught us that it's not a good idea to rebuild ancient buildings because later on historians won't be able to tell what's old and what's new. Not a good idea at all.
3. He came up with the Minoan time line. He divided the periods of the Bronze age into 3; the Early, Middle and Late Minoan. Historians since then have made some simple changes, but it pretty much remains the same .
4.He published in 1921 the first volume of four volumes of THE PALACE OF MINOS AT KNOSSOS, written by him.
5. His chief kept a log of the excavations that Sir Evans and his group did. Much more scientific approach to the excavation process, than people before him showed.

Sir Evans had findings in crete revealing an intrecat maze of the biuldings, pottery, pillars, and frescoas. And also keeping with the myth he dubbed the ruins at Knossos the palace of Minos, and gave the name "minoan" to the civilzation of Bronze age crete.He was also knighted in 1911, and in 1921 published the first volume of his most famous work, the four volume opus entilted The Palace of Minos at Knossos.
He also concieved of the Minoan timeline; the early, Middle, and Late Minoan. He also he uncovered the ruins in Crete. But he did do some bad stuff he reconstructed the ruins of Crete so now you can not tell the diffrence between the new and old parts. So Evans is a reminder about the dangers of grafting modern day views onto an anciant world.But he did discover the Minoan civilazation.
Hey this is Jons work =]
1. He found the Mycenaen palace on crete.
2. made the Mycenaen time line of
early middle and late ages.
3. He had to restore the palace several times and set this as a lesson to al archeologists.
4. Evans made his entire crew keep a personal journal.
5. Beleived that the cretans were a complex and developed society.
Donny Olin
Provide 5 ways Evans influeced scholarly views of Cretan and Mycenaen civilization.
1. he wrote the "Minoan" time line.
2. when writing the time line he broke it into three different periods.
3. he tried to recreate, after excavating, the "Palace of Minos".
4. speaks of their "writing" very highly as to show advanced they might have been.
5. also seperated the writing into two types, linear a and linear b to show the differences on "styles" of writing.
James Veenstra
Hey Charisse, for #4 I believe that I read that by being influenced by the art of his time, to an ONLOOKER the difference between the original building and his reconstruction was unnoticeable but to modern archeologists the difference between his ART DECO reconstruction and the original was quite remarkable- JAMES

1. he excavated the "palace of Knossos" on the island of Crete. He found the location by reading the myth about Theseus and the Minotaur.
2. He was knighted in 1911 and in 1921 he published his first book the palace of Minos at Knossos Vol. 1
3. He started excavating on the Island of Crete in the year 1899 where he found buildings, pottery, pillars, and frescoes.He called the place "palace of Minos" because of the Homeric myth. He finished excavating in 1903.
4. He was also remembered by what he shouldn't have done when excavating. When he first found the"palace of Knossos" He dug it up, but the ruins started to erode. So he started to reconstruct the ruins. when he finished though it looked more like art deco which was popular around Evan's time. So now scholars frown upon Reconstruction of an archaeological find. Instead they think that a portion must be left undisturbed for future generations to examine with better technology.
5.He found two forms of script writing called Linear A and Linear B. Which he thought was the first complex form of writing. But in the 1950's he was proven wrong by Michael Ventris.
to James i feel that if i had hust read your answers and not even read the article it would be sort of difficult to understand the consept of the article plz try to use a little more detail ( like the discoveriers name Plz and Thx)
-Justice Mason
5 ways that Sir Arthur Evans influenced scholarly views of Cretan and Mycennaen civilization.
1. Rebuilt part of an old historical building (ruins at Knossos). This tells us NOt to mix the old with the new when it comes to matters like these, as it can be hard to tell which one is which. Plus, the interior was in art deco style, which, we can obviously tell that the Minoans did not have art deco. This is not cool.
2. Had published the 1st 4 volumes of "The Palace of Minos at Knossos" in 1920, which can give us information on the Minoans.
3. Made the 1st Cretan timeline, which splits into 3 parts: Early, Middle, and Late Minoan.
4. He had brought Greek mythology over to Crete.
5. He had found the two forms of writing (on clay tablets), Linear A, and Linear B. Both were said to be in Crete, but Micheal Ventris proved him wrong, as the forms of writing were actually in Greek.

i thought it was very interesting how he disscovered ALL the places and things. it would take a great man to find such things and he was. and all the differenceses and similarities in the things he found.
i think that peoples answers varied because of all the things he discovered that you could pick to answer.
also people did a great job finding things from the text.

- Sir Arthur Evans made his own version of King Minos' "labyrinth", amazingly like Art Deco, a popular style those days...
-He created the Minoan timeline, which divided the Bronze Age Cretan cultural periods into distinct sections. This division remains basically intact today.
-He uncovered old buildings, but added or recreated buildings until no modern archaeologists could tell the difference.
-Evans delivered a lecture about the two forms of script found, Linears A and B.
-His chief assistant was directed log their daily progress, which is much more scientific than preceding archaeologists.
Provide 5 ways Evans influeced scholarly views of Cretan and Mycenaen civilization.
1. He uncovered the ruins of what is believed to be King Minos' palace
2. He created the Minoan timeline, seperating it into the "Early", "Middle", and "Late" periods.
3. When weather began to erode the temples, he rebuilt them. Which, in retrospect, was not a good idea because now it's impossible for historians to distinguish the old from the new.
4. He found two forms of script (Linear A and Linear B)
5. He also kept a log (at least, he had someone keep it for him) of their excavations, which gives scholars and reseachers something solid to base any and all research off of.

1. His Finds at Knossos proved to be spectacular. They uncovered lots of things such as: maze of buildings, pottery, pillars, and frescoes. He actually declared that the ruins were the “Palace of Minos”. And also gave the Minoan civilization its name.
2. He came up with the time frame for the Minoan civilization. He divided the periods up of the Bronze Age. He came up with three distinct groups, the early, middle, and the late Minoan.
3. Evans also popularized the world of the Aegean civilization and brought to life, and brought to life through years of work on the ruins at Crete. Many people consider him to be an example of what not to do because e of his careless attempts when he was restoring the ruins. The way that he didn’t pay attention to the weather and it erode lots of the restoration. He also restored it more for his own contemporary sensibility than for science so the new palace ended up having very similar details to Art- Deco.
4. He assures that there was no written language made by a Paleolithic man. The Minoan civilization was the ones that developed a complex and civilized language. He discovered many, many things from the Minoan civilization. Unfortunately for him, in the 1950s a guy Michael Ventris that the language that he found was actually Greek.
5. He mixed the palace ideas and construction together that you can barely tell that he mixed the new and old construction.

1. He proved the myth of king Minos and the Minotaur to be real by finding the labyrinth.
2. He conceived of the Minoan timeline, dividing Minoan culture into Early, Middle, and Late Minoan.
3. He excavated the “Palace of Knossos”.
4. He believed that the Minoan civilization created the first complex and civilized form of writing.
5. He pretty much discovered the Minoan civilization.
1. He excavated the ruins at Knossos, and and dubbed them, the palace of Minos, as well as giving the name Minoan to the Bronze age Cretan civilization.
2.He created the Minoan time line, he divided the culture into 3 sections, the early, middle, and late. This time line remains almost the same as he created it, even with today's dating methods.
3.He made the Aegean civilization popular and brought it to life through years of working on the ruins on Crete.
4.He recreated the ruins on Crete, but he remade them more like he imagined them like and not like what they had actually been.
5.Because of his actions on the ruins on Crete, present day scholars have decided to keep a part of all sites undisturbed to future generations can reconstruct them more accurately.
Nate Mulder
1-He conceived of the Minoan timeline, which was the periods of Bronze Age grouped into 3 distinct sections, which were the Early, Middle, & Late Minoan.
2-He taught us what not to do when you do an archaeological exacavation/restoration. The weather eroded one of his finds, the palace ruins at Knossos, and he reconstructed it based on "his own contemporary sensibility than science."
3-Showed us not to "fashion facts to suit their own needs and desires." For example, Sir Arthur Evans wanted to believe he was changing civilization as we know it, he wasn't thinking about the importanance, he was thinking about the fame and how he could try and make the world a better place.
4-Uncovered almost all of the Palace of Minos in 4 years.
5-From his mistake influenced scholars when restoring an ancient building, do NOT blend the restored pieces with the original building.

one. Sir Arthur Evans excavated the Palace of Knossos on the island of Crete.
two. Evans created a Minoan time line which divided the periods of the Bronze
age into three dynasties; the Early, Middle, and Late Minoan.
three. Evans got everyone interested in the Aegean civilizations again, and
rejuvenated years of work on ruins in Crete.
four. He gave lectures convincing people to believe that his Minoan civilization
had developed the first complex form of witting, later to find out it was
actually Greek.
five. Arthur Evans reconstructed the Palace of Knossos so that the old &
original building blends in with the new building, it all seems to flow together
making it quite difficult to tell the new from the old.
--Andrea Stewart
Myths that brought him to crete were Theseus and the Minotaur. Law giver had a wife who was punished by the god Zeus (bull), she gave birth to a “monster” half-man half bull called a Minataur. Which was kept in an underground labyrinth created by Daedalus. Evans found that labyrinth but because of erosion he had to rebuild what he believed was the labyrinth for further last. We learned not to build over sites with modern buildings.
Evans found in Knossos buildings, pottery, Pillars and frescoes.
Published. the first volume of “The palace of Minos at knossos” in 1921.
Created the Minoan timeline with three sections, Early, Middle, and late Minoan. Created by keeping a daily log of excavations.
Made a lecture about the cultures of primitive or lower culture.

Good but I think you could have gone a bit more in depth.

To Nate
good answers. They were in your own words, too. Shows that you know your stuff.
To Fabiola,
Although your answers are very thorough, they're very lengthy. Wow, nice!
Sir Arthur Evans
Provide 5 ways Evans influenced scholarly views of Cretan and Mycenaen civilization.
1-Evans created the Minoan timeline, which divided the periods of Bronze Age Cretan culture into three individual sections. They were the Early, Middle and Late Minoan periods.
2-Evans also helped popularize the Aegean civilization, and through many years hard work, excavated the ruins of Crete.
3- Evans also discovered a type of writing in Crete. He believed that these were the first examples of a written language developed by humans. It was later discovered to have been Greek writing, but it was a significant discovery before it was discovered to be false.
4- When Evans unearthed the palace ruins at Knossos, they faced the danger of falling apart. He began restoring the palace. The restoration didn’t make the palace look much like it did originally, but more modern. Evans mistake reminds us to not to graft modern day views onto ancient civilizations.
5- Also, when Evans rebuilt the palace ruins, he attempted to mix the old with the new, so that anybody that looked at it couldn’t tell what was original and what was new. No one does this anymore because if anyone needed to study the original structure, they wouldn’t be able to tell where it was because the old and the new are to similar to tell apart.

How Sir Arthur Evans influenced scholarly views of Cretan and Mycenaen civilization
1. He began excavating on Crete in the year 1899 and when he discovered his findings at Knossos it proved to others to be spectacular.
2. By the end of 1903 almost the entire palace had been uncovered and so he began to work on the surroundings which had been remarkable to others and had proved a lot that these myths about these other civilizations may be true.
3. His assistant would take note of these discoveries so others may see what Sir Arthur has really found.
4. After his discoveries and his assistants discoveries at Mycenae he had given a lecture at Oxford on the two forms of script writings found in Crete, giving a compare and contrast on the different styles of writing he had found.
5. He had also argued and tried to convince that the civilizations of the Greek time period had no true system of writing until Paleolithic man and proving that the Minoan civilization had developed the first complex and civilized type of writing.

For #2 it almost sounds like you put to things into one answer. I am also not sure that the fact he was knited is that important.Laura Johnson

COMMENTING ON ABIGAIL MARAGOM:
It was hard to understand the 5 ways Evans influenced scholarly views, because the statements were mixed in together in your answer. It would have also helped if you would have put numbers in your answer and if they weren't very broad.With details explaning exactly how Evans influenced scholars, the answers would have been better understood. Ex: Minoan Timeline, palace at Knossos, etc.
Overall it was acceptable job.

comment to Megan
even though your answers were short i thought that they were still good answers
Kelly Drelles
COMMENTING ON AVA GUMOSKI:
I really liked how you explained your answers thoroughly and got right to the point. You not only answered the questions, but also added details to it. For example,by mentioning the two types of writing (line A and B) and also how Evans started to rebuild the palace at Knossos in a modern way, and how that wasn't a good idea. Overall good job!
~Fabiola Enriquez
Megan: When you worded your 5 reasons in a list, if you read "Evans influenced Cretan and Mycenaen civilization by excavated in Crete in 1899"
it wouldn't make sense. So, make sure if you do it in that format that you will make sure that everything agrees with each other when you write in a list. (I hope this makes sense)
A general comment to many people:
It really doesn't seem right to me to write "lol" or talk in all lowercase letters or abbreviate things. I just don't think it looks like you put effort into your homework
Commenting on Justice
Again, you need to try to cut down on your grammatical errors, because they make your answers a bit difficult to understand. But, I can tell you put a lot of thought into your answers. It shows. Nice job.

Commenting on Garrett
Your answers were not too short, not too long, and to the point. I liked reading them. Nice job.
-Matt Hinkel
@Maria G.:
I like how for #4, you said the title and date of the book, instead of just saying he published a book.
@Ava G.:
I like how you "updated" #5. What I mean by that is, you did say he discovered Tablet A & B, but you also took the time to find out that his findings were false.

Andrea,
your answers were very complete and carefully answered
Emily,
you could have spaced them out but they were really good
Commenting on Ethan Glatz:
For your answer for number three...I think you should be more descriptive.
Commenting on Steven Collison:
Your answer for number five was very well thought out. Good job!
-Haley Young :]
Commenting on Fabiola Enriquez
You took a lot of time to write your answers and I really liked that you also included that he showed people what NOT to do. Most people only look for the good that people do and not always for the bad, but the bad things that Evans did had a great influence on other scholars and archeologists by showing them what NOT to do during digs and excavations.

Commenting on Emily Guy
It would have been easier to read your answers if you had put numbers in front of each influence.

Comment to Stephanie Lacey's
number 2
the answer was full, but i had what i think unneeded information within it. I dont believe him being knighted changed any archaeological views on the palace
comment to Fabiola Enriquez
Nicely done.
i like how you answer the question, and yet get even deeper with what you are trying to get across to the reader
commenting on Tatiana Dixon
Your answer to #1 was good. You described what he found in detail. I believe it was King Minos' labyrinth.
Commenting on Eulices
Really good answer to #2. I forgot that he was knighted i also liked how you included dates.
I like how Justice Mason filled out complete answers for each of the numbers.
SOme people didnt use enough information though,
-gabriela guzman
Steven,
for your 5th influence, what do you mean? I understand future counter-parts, but I don't get the situation realization of said location.

Zac,
i think your 4 and 5 are basically the same thing.

commenting on Justice Mason:
I like your answer for #4 it is short, but it is to the point. overall very well done.
Sir Arthur Evans
Provide 5 ways Evans influeced scholarly views of Cretan and Mycenaen civilization.
#1: He was more interested in finding real civilizations verses finding antique vases and jewels.
#2: What he found at Konossos and the bronze age civilization (Minoan). The four books of The Palace of Minos at Knossos.
#3: Divided the Bronze Age Cretan periods into 3 parts. [Early, Middle, and the Late Minoan.]
#4: One thing he did that today we see as a bad thing is cover up and renovate the old architecture to make it look natural and blend.
#5: He had gone off of the Charles Darwin biological evolution theory and studied the higher and lower cultures.

Commenting on Joel:
I am commenting on what you said to Lexie. You said, and I quote, "Lexie, how does having a book published influence thought".
Although she wasn't very thorough with her answer, having his book published probably gave people more information on the Minoan society (Palace of Knossos and such), and probably influenced others to further investigate and record their own findings and maybe "add on" to the information as well.

Commenting on Justice Mason
I liked that your answers, especially #2. You fully explained what he did, and how he had influence on scholars, not just a one sentence fact.

I liked your answers, especially for number 4, that was one I didn't think of.

comment at steven:
i don't really understand what you meant with your fifth answer. you kind of got it backwards. maybe you misread it?
-maddie
comment to fabiola:
your answers were really good. they helped me understand the article more. the only thing was they were liiiiitle bit wordy.
-maddie
To Steven Collison:
Yeah but he kinda ruined it because now you can't quite tell the difference between the new & the original.
5)The fact that Evans used reconstruction tactics was condemned by modern day archaeologist due to the realization that our future counterparts may better understand the situation in which took place at sed location.
For the 1st person, I think you got the point but you were a bit low on details, try to flesh it put a bit.
For Gabriela Guzman I liked your last 3 but the first 2 were a little low on details.
Stephen King
To Mallory Caillaud-Jones:
isn't Evans the one who named them, Linear A & B?
might just want to make that clear.
5. Found two baked clay tablets with two types of writing on them. The writings were called Linear A and Linear B. Evans was positive that the Minoan civilization developed the first complex and civilized form of writings but later on a man named Michael Ventris, who explained that the linear writing found in Crete was actually Greek, proved him wrong.

i really like how your answers were straight forword and to the point, but you didnt leave important details out.
Jake Green
Andrea, for your third answer, It would have been more complete if you had added that there were 2 forms of writing, linear A and linear B.
Gabriella, You're answers were true, but they didn't have enough detail. try to go more in-depth next time

Provide 5 ways Evans influeced scholarly views of Cretan and Mycenaen civilization. You do not have to include page numbers for your answers. Assignment is due in Mrs. Velez's email by Wednesday 9.24 by 10pm, on the blog by Thursday 9.25 by 6pm and comments are due by Sunday by 10pm.
1. Evans dubbed the ruins at Knossos the “Palace of Minos”
2. Gave the name “Minoan” to the civilization of Bronze Age Crete.
3. End of 1903 almost all palaces were uncovered and work began on surrounding area.
4. He was knighted in 1911
5. Published 1st volume entitles “The Palace of Minos at Knossos.
6. Conceived of the Minoan timeline, dividing the periods of Bronze Age Cretan culture in three sections.
7. Recreated what he believed to be the “labyrinth” and the palace of King Minos.
8. Blending of two constructions
9. Lectured at Oxford on the two forms of script writing found in Crete.
Tatiana Padorn commenting on Jazzy's.
I think your answers were nicely put in words and when i read it i could understand where you were getting at and to me those where a l9ot of his great accomplishments. they were very similar to mines as well.
- Sir Arthur Evans made his own version of King Minos' "labyrinth", amazingly like Art Deco, a popular style those days...
-He created the Minoan timeline, which divided the Bronze Age Cretan cultural periods into distinct sections. This division remains basically intact today.
-He uncovered old buildings, but added or recreated buildings until no modern archaeologists could tell the difference.
-Evans delivered a lecture about the two forms of script found, Linears A and B.
-His chief assistant was directed log their daily progress, which is much more scientific than preceding archaeologists.
mallory- great answers, kind of long though
maria- i like how you put it in your own words. it really sounds like you understood it.
megan- i think it might be too short. maybe its just me though; those are good answers.
