#FotoVorschlag 'In der Innenstadt'

Vor 4000 Jahren steppte der Bär... heute ist eher Gras übers Stadtbild gewachsen...

#Crete #Malia #MinoenPalace #PalaceOfMalia #travel #photography

Auf einer Fläche, die teils mit Gras bewachsen ist, steht eine große Amphore von fast 2m Höhe. Auf der Fläche erkennt man Fundamente und Mauerrest eines Palastes und kleinen Stadt. Auch die Amphore scheint aus Scherben zusammengeklebt worden sein.

The bull dissolved.
Zeus stood before her.
From his lips came a prophecy — and the future of kings.
