What is Another Look at Minoan and Mycenaean Interrelationships in Floor Decoration about?
This article examines the traditional assumption that the Mycenaean painted floors on plaster incised into squares represent an imitation of carpets. The evidence presented suggests, however, that they were a direct imitation of the Minoan inlaid stone slabs. This interpretation, together with an analysis of an unusual floor fresco found on Crete, indicates an interaction between Minoan and Mycenaean uses of this type of decoration.
