To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Both island-powers, commanding the narrow seas in their vicinity with their ships, and, " encompassed by the inviolate sea, " needed " no towers along the steep " to guard their palaces and cities. But the men of con- tinental Greece had to guard against invaders from the North, just as France has to ward herself against Germany and Germany against Russia; and so they fortified their towns and palaces. This is a very pretty comparison, and, for the great period of the Minoan thalassocracy, it p...robably is an apt one. This period I take to be the Thi rd Middle. Minoan rather than the Second Late Minoan period^ which may well have been in reality an age of com- parative political weakness and loss of empire. Under the later princes fortifications were probably needed, though perhaps were not always supplied, owing to lack of knowledge and blind confidence ; the result we may see in the sack of Knossos. We may perhaps ascribe the narrowing of the North Gate to an attempt at pro- tection made at the eleventh hour.
