My Phaistos disk replica 🙂 The original was made in the bronze age, and some thousands of years later (in 1908) it was found on the Greek isle Crete. What's so striking about this find is that the symbols were stamped onto it, rather than carved, which is the first known case of re-usable stamps. Unfortunately we have no idea in which direction we shall start reading it. Or of what exact cultural significance the disk was. I suggest checking out wikipedia ("Phaistos Disk") to get a better glimpse at the symbols. Until now the text on the disk was indecipherable due to its shortness of 241 characters. #pagan #heathen #asatru #asatro #paganism #phaistosdisk #greek #pagansofinstagram #greece #ancientgreece #phaistos #archaeology #phaestos #festos #stone #replica #greekculture #bronzeage #geology #inscription #clay #witchythings #ancient #artifact #minoan #minos #history #archäologie #livinghistory #replik https://www.instagram.com/p/ByDbBs0CGsA/?igshid=42s7psjzgkts
Broke my fave coffee cup today. Am now obsessed with #kamaresware from #Phaestos. Look at this glorious cup! Almost 4,000 years old. I’d probably break this one too. #butterfingers #coffeecupsoftheworld https://www.instagram.com/p/CZplxrPoikO/?utm_medium=tumblr

Le palais de Phaestos (ou Phaistos) m'a davantage séduite que le celui de Khnossos. Ce palais minoen a été construit sur le sommet d'une petite colline verdoyante, dominant la vallée de la Messara aux nombreuses cultures encore de nos jours. Le premier palais de Phaestos fut bâti vers 2 000 avant JC. Trois siècles plus tard, il fut détruit, mais je ne sais pas comment. Tremblement de terre ? Guerre ? Un second palais fut construit bien plus grand qui ne...

The Minoan Palace of Phaistos
The Palace of Phaistos (also written as Phaestos, Faistos, Festos, or in Greek Φαιστός) is considered to be the finest of all Minoan Palaces.
Phaiestos is built in south-central Crete, in the Messara Plain. To its north lies Psiloritis, while to the south are the Asterousia Mountains and the Libyan sea.
The earliest settlements of the site, date back to the Neolithic Period (approximately 4000 BC). The Old Palace was built in the Propalatial Period (1900 BC) and had to be rebuilt twice due to extensive damage by earthquakes. The re-builders constructed New Palace on top of the ruins, so these phases remained visible to archaeologists.
In fact, Dr Doro Levi (Former Director of the Italian School of Archaeology, who conducted a new cycle of excavations back in 1950), believes that the first two phases of the old palace of Phaestos constitute the oldest palatial buildings in Crete.
