The earliest known Greek civilization centered on Crete and known for its sea trading power is the Minoan civilization, which flourished from 2000 to 1450 BCE. Named after the mythical King Minos, they are recognized for their palaces and extensive trade networks throughout the Mediterranean. Their decline started around 1450 BCE, likely due to invasions and natural disasters.
