"But how far does the work of subsequent archaeologists in Crete support this widely-held view of Minoans? It is appropriate, as we approach the centenary of Evans' historic excavation, to take stock of the evidence. Rodney Castleden has extended the new interpretation he began in ""The Knossos Labyrinth"". Embodying the fruits of recent archaeological research, he has produced a new vision of the peoples of Minoan Crete."
