DESCRIPTION
It is an interactive electronic map based on Google Maps. The software used html5, css3, java script, Maps Javascript API, photoshop 2020 and illustrator 2020. Through this software one can see those areas that developed civilization during the Bronze Age in the region of Crete, known as the Minoan civilization. The student enters the archeological site which refers to the specific historical period. In the Minoan civilization we mention those archeological sites and findings related to this period and thus we differ from the Google maps. However, there are all the features provided by google maps. For example, one can put the little google man in the archeological site and see it live.

EDUCATIONAL DESCRIPTION
The proposed software contributes to the development of historical, critical, visual, digital and cartographic literacy. Students learn to navigate google maps and approach historical events spatially and critically. They also acquire teamwork and social skills. It is in line with the Curricula of History, as it provides for the use of digitized maps to investigate the dispersion of positions in the various historical periods and to draw conclusions about the economic and political life of the periods. Indicative tasks in the classroom: • What caused the disaster? • Tour of the palace and comparison of the palace of Knossos with the palace of Nestor in Pylos • How did the descent of the Dorians affect the Minoan civilization? What happened to the Minoans?
