CRETE GOURNIA SNAKE GODDESS

CLICK TO VIEW ACTUAL PHOTO SIZE

The interior of the palace is not well preserved, but had several official rooms and magazines, over which were spacious halls. The central hall of the palace was separated by the central court by a row of round wooden columns, alternating with square stone piers. To the north of the palace and independent from it lies a small public shrine dedicated to the Minoan "Snake goddess". It lies at the end of a blind alley, is almost square (3 x 4 m.) and has a bench on the south side for the deposition of religious oblects, some of which were found in the excavation: clay figurines of the goddess with raised arms, a tripod altar, and snake tubes.
