The minoan civilization was ruled by king Minos, hence "Minoan" civilization, "Mino-taur" etc.. They just had a lot of female deities and they respected women a lot. Most high priests were supposed to be female. Actually i havent heared of any male high priest but this doesnt mean they didnt exist.
But this shouldnt even be in the Greek forums cause the only thing the Minoans and the Greek have in common is the island of Crete.
Thats pure crap. There is no evidence whatsoever that King Minos ruled Minoan Crete. "minoan" Is just some idea that Arthur Evans had when he found Crete, because he believed that it was a patriachal society, and believed that there was infact a King Minos, when there is no evidence at all.
That is just a THEORY.
Not fact.
