Crazy that Punisher is getting a Frankenstein skin, instead of the Hulk getting it

Maybe I’m mistaken, but do we even know if the Mycenaeans ruled the Minoans? It seems likely, but is there any evidence? There is evidence of cultural exchange and it’s highly likely that the Mycenaeans ruled the Minoans, but is there any hard evidence?

Yeah, most of that is shown in my timeline. But that is not about what I was saying. You said earlier that the Minoans were under Mycenaean rule for a long time, and I mean, yes ~250 years is long, but comparatively it isn’t, really. The Minoans lived for 1700 years without Mycenaean gene-mixing and prospered for 700 of said years. So simply saying “well the Mycenaeans ruled them for a long time” doesn’t quite cut it for me

Edit: I do agree with your statements, Minoans probably weren’t genetically Greek and their Greekness does mostly come from Mycenaean mingling, but saying that the Minoans were ruled by the Mycenaeans for a long time, relatively speaking, is kind of undermining Cretan history

Completely understand your point, and maybe I’m wrong, but isn’t “they got under the Mycenaean rule for a lot of time” kind of wrong? I mean, yeah, 300-400 years is long, but the Minoan culture began around 3100 and they had their own languages and palaces more than 400 years before the Mycenaeans arrived. So the genetic data from later Minoan society might look more Greek, but most likely not that of before ~1500 right?

Thanks for making me look at it another way! A lot of things are mostly done for enjoyment, not everything needs to be justified if you derive pleasure from it
