These posts were mostly based off of Rodney Castleden's book on the Minoans, which has many flaws. I thought that Evans insinuated the Minoans were a non-warlike matriarchy...is that not the case? And which object are you referring to, with bird goddesses being warriors?

I find your way of reasoning very much the same as for example Cynthia Eller´s: just knocking down strawdolls. Are there anyone - or even Evans himself- claiming the LM period being peaceful? And what evidens have you got for the interpretations of the old bird goddesses with a little hat or crown on their heads, instead being warriors with helmets?

I have to say thank you for your wonderful mod and all the serious work you all have done. It's absolutely astounding that, for myself, I actually can see reasonable reconstructions of LBA warfare from just a group of inspired people on a forum! All other reconstructions of warfare of this period are in movies or static images in books. It may sound over the top but you all are filling a niche in reconstructive archeology. I have never seen ANY reconstructions of Harappan warfare until your mod!<br /><br />Thanks for that, and thanks as well for the link. I loved the new reconstructions, they're fantastic as well.

AoB Dev here, I was doing some research and actually came upon this webpage, very nice stuff!<br /><br />I will say this, our screenshots back then are a little bit iffy on some of the specifics of the minoans and mycenaeans.
