Like with Egypt (5) there is an ambiguity about Minoa.
On one hand its culture by far surpassed those of many races (2):
Then again, as we know from Billy, King Minos really did sacrifice (kill) young males and females to appease the Sea god Poseidon (3) and one really wonders why Atlanteans could fall for such religious superstition.
Be that as it may, a chain of eruptions of the Thera=Santorini volcano (e.g., in 1603 BC – 1554 BC – 1453 BC) caused major earthquakes in close-by (1) Minoa. Many Minoans escaped Crete and settled on the Greek mainland (4). As they were a minority they mixed with and taught the Hellenic tribes (4). We may surmise that many of the famous ancient Greek scientists and thinkers may have been reincarnations of Plejaren (Little Atlantis / Minoan) ancestors.

(1) Semjase / CR 55
The Minoans were Atlanteans, i.e., descendants of people from Little Atlantis, who lived on the Santorini Islands some 187 km north of Crete (the island were the Minoans lived).
“200. Crete was called Minoa at that time and its inhabitants were Atlantean descendants.”

“[The mainland Greeks] were instructed by the Minoans in all arts and trades as well as in written and spoken language.”

The Antikythera Mechanism may well have been a Minoan or Little Atlantis’ ‘creations’

(3) CR 750:85-86
The Minotaur was King Minos 2nd son:
“Semjase and I were no doubt able to learn and ascertain at the sites of the events of the time, Pasiphae, the wife of King Minos, was impregnated by him and then gave birth to a son who was physically deformed, similar to the 'Elephant Man' who lived in England in the last century…
Minotaur had a good intelligentum, was of a very peaceful nature and had been astonishingly well educated by the court servant, so that one could converse with him through a translator. When he was grown up and also made aware of his origins by his governess, he tried to get to the court and demand his rights, but this led to the king and his wife reacting viciously and consequently commissioning Daidalos to build a labyrinth, which was actually a huge cave, to imprison the physically deformed son in. However, always fearing the vengeance of Poseidon, they tried to appease the sea god by arranging for human sacrifices to be regularly offered in the labyrinth, but only youths of both sexes, who were first chosen from the population, stolen and killed as sacrifices, but later by Athens after war had been waged there and the Minoans had been victorious.”

3400 years ago, Greece was still inhabited by the wild Hellenic tribes, which were not yet capable of the slightest trace of a real culture. Through the Minoans the Greeks learned how to write and read and many other skills but they did not develop the received knowledge any further.
