The Palace of Minos  - the legendary Cretan home of the Minotaur  - captured the imagination of people all over the world from the moment its excavator, Arthur  (later Sir Arthur) Evans reported his discoveries to the press.  

Evans had purchased the site at Knossos and started to excavate it in 1900.   He had close connections with the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford  (he was Keeper 1884-1907) until his death in 1941, and most of the archival material from the Knossos excavations is now in the Museum and the Ashmolean Library.

This booklet is intended to show with the help of some of this material, much of it previously unpublished, how the excavations proceeded and how the reconstruction of parts of the Palace was achieved.
