Minos

Minos, the first king of Crete, high priest and legislator, was born as the son of Zeus and Europa. As the ruler of one of the most powerful nations of the ancient world, he was greatly feared and respected by all the neighbouring kingdoms. Every 9 years, in the cave of Ideon Andron (gr. ΙδαίοΆντροo; on the mount Ida, in the massif of Psiloritis) he was being advised regarding legislacy by his father himself. Minos was well-known for his wisdom and because of this after his death he became a judge of the dead in the underworld. Minos Suite reflects its archeological theme in individually selected ornaments and skillfully used colors.
