Thank you. I understand why parts of Knossos was restored to give one a sense of perspective but I always did wonder how they truly knew it was accurate.

It's been 14 years since I've seen it and only as a casual visitor. I don't know enough to know what I don't know but as a student of history thank for for what to you do to preserve our past.

What is your position on preserving ancient ruins? Should they be "restored", have deterioration prevented or left for nature to take its course? I was lived in Greece and it seemed that Knossos seems to be left alone but the Parthenon in Athens seems to be in perpetual repair. Just curious of various schools of thought. Not an archeology student. Just interested. Thanks.
