This book takes a fresh look at the Minoan Abacus and the Phaistos Disk, and presents recent discoveries about the two Minoan calendars. One of these was for use by priests, for religious ceremonies, while the other was meant for the navy. This suggests elements of a very advanced, almost modern, civilization. Another subject treated in this context is the role the Minoan Labyrinth plays, being the oldest map of the sky. Here, basic models and prototypes are developed from material from such diverse sources as the Orphic texts, Homeric Epics, and Pythagoras and his followers, as well as Plato, Aristotle and others. The interdisciplinary approach will appeal to scientists interested in ancient astronomy, calendars, science and technology.
