The centre of Minoan civilisation and capital of Minoan Crete lays 5km south of Heraklion. Knossos flourished for approximately two thousand years. As a major centre of trade and the economy, Knossos maintained ties with the majority of cities in the Eastern Mediterranean. Wealth accumulation and the advancement of an urban lifestyle were the hallmarks of this zenith, which began circa 2000 BC and was typified by magnificent monumental buildings and a complex social structure.
