Chart XLIV a Crete 2821 B.C. 1 st 2 nd 3 rd 4 th 5 th 6 th 7 th Like Gaul in the days of Ceaser, Crete was at this time civided into three parts or states--Knossos, Goulas and Polurheni. Jupiter was King of Knossos and Overlord of the whole island, for the rulers of the other states acknowledged him as their leader, although they were perfectly free to manage their own internal affairs. Mars was King of the great City and terrirory of Goulas, near the eastern end of the island, and Corona was King of Polurheni. There was also, in the south of the island, an independent city with a few miles of territory attached to it, over which Vulcan ruled as hereditary Prince. All these Kings were also ex-officio High Priests, as in Egypt, and the King's palace was always the principal temple of his State. The people worshipped a dual deity-Father-Mother-and these two were regarded as one, though some men offered their devotion more to the Father-aspect, and some to the Mother. The Father, when spoken of separately , was called Brito, and the Mother Dictynna. No statues were made of these deities, but great reverence was paid to their symbol, which was a curious object like a souble-headed axe. This was carved in stone and made in metal, and set up in the temples where one would naturally expect a statue, and a conventional drawing of it represented the deity in the writing of the period. This double axe was called labrys and it was for it originally that the celebrated Labyrinth was built, to symbolise to the people the difficulty of finding the Path of God. Much of their religious service and worship was carried on out of doors. Various remarkable isolated peaks of rock were regarded as sacred to the Great mother, and the King and his people went out to one or other of these on certain days in each month and chanted prayers and praises. A fire was lit, and each person wove a sort of crown of leaves for himself, wore it for awhile, and then threw it into the fire as an offering to the Mother-God. Each of these peaks had also a special yearly festival, much like a Pardon in Brittany--a kind of semi religious village fair, to which people came from all parts of the island to picnic in the open air for two or three days and enjoyed themselves hugely. In one case we noticed that a great old tree of enormous size and unusually perfect shape was regarded as sacred to Diktynna, and offerings were made under its branches. A vast amount of incense was burnt under it, and it was supposed that the leaves they were carefully collected and distributed to the people, who regarded as sacred to Diktynna, and offerings were made under its branches. A vast amount somehow absorbed and retained the scent, so when they fell in autumn they carefully collected and distributed to the people, who regarded them as talismans which protected them from evil. That these dried leaves had a strong fragrance is undeniable, but how far it was due to the incense seems problematical. The people were a fine looking race, obviously Greek in type, their dress was simple, for the men in ordinary life usually wore nothing but a loin cloth except when they put on gorgeous official costumes for religious or other festivals. The women wore a cloth which covered the whole of their body, but was arranged something like an Indian dhoti in the lower part, giving rather the effect of a divided skirt. The interior of the island was mountainous, not unlike Sicily, and there was much beautiful scenery. The architecture was massive but the houses were curiously arranged. On entering, one came directly into a large hall like a church, in which the entire family and the servants lived all day, the cooking being done in one corner. At the back was a covered passage (as in the houses in Java at the present day) leading to what was in effect a separate building in which were the sleeping rooms. These were quite small and dark--mere cubicles--but open all round for about two feet under the rood, so that there was ample ventilation. Round the wall of this hall under the roof usually ran a frieze of painted bas -relief-generally a procession, executed in the most spirited style. The buildings were of granite, and there were many statues of granite, though also some made of a softer stone, and some of copp er and wood. Iron was used by this race, but not much; the principal metal was copper. The pottery was distinctly peculiar; all the commonest articles were made of bright yellow earthenware, painted with all sorts of figures. These figures were generally on a broad white band round the middle of the pot, and the colours used were nearly always red, brown or yellow-very rarely blue or green. These were the common household pots; but for the table they had porcelain and glass--both very well made. Most of the glass was of a bluish green tint, like some of the old Venetian glass--not colourless like ours. The people used many vessels of gold, wonderfully chased and sometimes set with jewels. These people were especially clever at jeweller's work of all sorts, and made elaborate ornaments. One sees among them no diamonds or rubies--chiefly amethysts, jasper and agate. But many ornamentals were evidently imported, for they had statuettes and models in carved ivory. These people had two kinds of writing, evidently corresponding to the hieroglyphic and the demotic in Egypt, but they were quite different from the Egyptian. A decimal system was used in calculating, and arithematic generally seems to have been well understood. These Cretans were good sailors, and had a powerful fleet of galleys, some with as many as sixty oars. They used sails alsosails which were wonderfully painted; but apparantly they employed them only whe the wind was almost directly astern. Jupiter had for his queen Viraj, who was the chief priestess of the Mother-God Diktynna. Viraj was a very holy woman of high reputation and great power; in fact through her husband, she was virtually the ruler of the island, and her son Saturn held an imp ortant position among the priests, and was governor of the capital city under his father. Mars, who had married Herakles, had two brothers, Mercury and Brihaspati, who acted as assistant priests and relieved him of much of his work. 211
