King Minos and Art of the Palace Walls

The article says that archeologists recently began to discover frescoes in Crete, and it describes a few of these frescoes in short detail. For this exercise, imagine that you are an archeologist working in the remains of ancient Crete. You discover a buried painting that no one has ever seen before. Write a short story from your perspective. Where did you find your painting? What does it look like? What do you think it might tell other archeologists about ancient Minoan civilization?
