Your failure is absolute. have a nice day via exposure and take your own shame to hades with you.
Because its not Linear A you moron! The Minoan civilization has more script systems that the only one you know... Your moronation will be similar to someone in the year 3000 thinking that a text they have in English is not English because it's in Arial instead of being in Times New Roman.

wikipedia has a ridiculous amount of unsourced claims, sometimes entire entries are sourceless, and soumetimes the sources have little to nothing to do with claims made in the articles
>Are Minoan and Sumerian related?
Presumably not; there's sort of 1500 years between the two writing systems (Liner A/B is the younger). >It's pre-phoenecia right?
Yes, but they're not related; Phonecian is closer to Egyptian hieroglyphs than anything.
Right, because no language can describe the activities, culture, architecture of people whose native language is different.
This is unironically why Taco Bell sucks; the recipes are not written and relayed to the staff in Nahuatl, which is the only way food of mesoamerican origin can be described.
It's nice for climates that don't snow and have warmer temperatures.
With some modifications, you could make it burglar proof and even use the top floor as a defense tower for sniping when the skeleton army arrives from Cyprus.
Make the base otut of cob. It easy to work with and yoy csn stucco the thing whatever colour you want your life size doll house to be. good luck with the pillars, not many stone masons these days that can carve a stone pillar like that. Maybe have a go at it yourself
>Not considered a supportive structure
Sure they are. HB&G permacast fiberglass columns are structural components, and they're probably the most common composite column found in the US. They're certainly strong enough to hold up that shitty roof made out of sticks. And if it's really a concern they could be installed around wood or steel posts.
If it could possibly be useful information for you at some point, sure. Knowing how to build a shitty mud hut from 4k years ago isn't useful information.
The difference is you have the ability to use what you learned there to your benefit so it's not useless knowledge. This however really is useless knowledge.
JFC, the morons itt who see a clay architectural model and assume that it perfectly replicates every aspect of how the real thing was made down to using identical materials.
"Minoan buildings often had flat, tiled roofs; plaster, wood or flagstone floors, and stood two to three stories high. Lower walls were typically constructed of ***stone and rubble, and the upper walls of mudbrick***. Ceiling timbers held up the roofs.
Construction materials for villas and palaces varied, and included sandstone, gypsum and limestone. Building techniques also varied, with some palaces using ***ashlar masonry*** and others roughly-hewn, ***megalithic blocks***.
inb4- >HURR TO THE DURR, MUH "MUDBRICK" !!! SEE, ITS JUST MUD!!!!!
" Mudbricks are known from 9000BCE, though ***since 4000BCE, bricks have also been fired***, to increase their strength and durability."
I guess this explains why so many seething motards on this board think that "American houses are built out of cardboard"...they saw something like picrel and applied the same "logic" they're using re: Minoan building systems itt.
Here you go.

wikipedia never lies pal
That's really weird, it looks way more like cuneiform than linear A

In this case he's totally correct. His tablet is the Cypro-Minoan syllabary; apparently it's currently somewhere in the Louvre.

Eh. I think I'll survive as long as we all agree to continue ignoring OP's actual question.

What a useless fricking ass.
Go take your reddit degree to the struggle session and cry.
Are Minoan and Sumerian related? It's pre-phoenecia right?

Damn, dude. How do you even live with yourself after this?
I don't know if anyone has told you this before but you are mentally deficient and should stop posting or pretending to know shit you don't.
damn this dude is a straight up wienersucker
Why the frick would you willingly live in something like that? That's barely a step above a mud hut.

Buy prefab fiberglass column for $150, slap concrete & stucco on the outside of it.

You will never build it.
Sometimes it's good to have knowledge for the sake of having knowledge
If it could possibly be useful information for you at some point, sure. Knowing how to build a shitty mud hut from 4k years ago isn't useful information.
You're talking to a guy who completed two different trade schools for the sake of acquiring knowledge
The difference is you have the ability to use what you learned there to your benefit so it's not useless knowledge. This however really is useless knowledge.
sure but in this case it was worth it so we can all make fun of that jackass.
Wouldn't a modern greek house suffice?
