"The origins of European architecture lie in Greece and Asia Minor, where architectuire had reached a remarkable level of sophistication by the 6th century B. C. It blossomed and developed for over five hundred years, spreading Greek influence to many parts of the Mediterranean world ... [This book begins] with descriptions of the imposing Cretan palaces containing porticoes, columns, pilasters and friezes and the palaces at Mycenae, Tiryns and Pylos on the mainland."
