Itinerary
Kouloures.
The virtual tour starts with an unsolved mystery. Kouloures are three large cylindrical pits, named after a Cretan type of round bread. Till today we don’t know what Kouloures were for. Listen to the stories and learn all about the potential theories.
Throne Room.
One of the most visited areas in Knossos is the Throne Room where you can admire the replica of the Minoan throne and listen to the fascinating story of the woman who actually sat on the throne in order to discover if she was a queen or a priestess. After all, you will agree that the powerful king Minos was probably not the patron of the throne.
Tripartite Shrine.
You are in front of the Tripartite shrine, the Knossos’s main sanctuary where it was discovered, among others, the snake goddess who appears with exposed breasts that emphasized their femininity and sexuality and with costume ornamented with mythical beasts.
North lustral area.
One of the most photographed sites in Knossos. According to archaeologist Sir Arthur Evans, anyone who arrived in Knossos by the north side had to purify himself during a ritual ceremony in order to enter the palatial complex.
