Archaeologists have evidence to say that the reputed Minoan Civilization was severely damaged by the eruption of Santorini Volcano, which destroyed their fleet.
The tsunami caused by Santorini Volcano travelled and hit the shores of Crete, destroying the plantations, the crops, the ships and commerce. And not just one tsunami but several occurred.
Finally, the Minoans did not disappear overnight; they were attacked by enemies and had no fleet to really fight back.

How did centaurs get its name?

Centaurs got their name from Greek mythology, where they were depicted as creatures with the upper body of a human and the lower body of a horse. The term "centaur" comes from the Greek word "kentauros." One theory suggests that the name may have been derived from the word for "bull" (kentauros) as a reference to their horse-like features, while another theory links it to the "kentaurs," a group of people known for their horse-riding skills. Centaurs are often portrayed as wild and untamed, embodying the duality of human civilization and primal nature.
