From the Editor
I have been meaning to send this message out for quite some time. I want to make a point of saying that this Substack and in turn, this podcast should be somewhat community driven. For instance:
Is there a topic you’d like to hear about on the podcast?
Do you have any questions based on what has already been featured? Maybe you’d like to learn more on something specific already mentioned (or not mentioned).
Do you have questions based on something not yet featured and related to ancient Eastern Mediterranean history?
Do you have questions about this Substack or the podcast itself?
Or something else related that I am overlooking.
If enough questions are submitted, I can record and publish special feature episodes to just focus on those questions or maybe introduce a Q&A segment at the end of each episode.
How to Submit a Question or Comment
You can always submit a comment to any and every update that gets posted/sent out.
There is also the option of sending an e-mail to petros AT petroskoutoupis DOT com. Although, there is the risk that my spam filter may flag it as spam, so be sure to write a proper and clear message on the subject line of the e-mail.
Also, do not forget about the discussion feature made available with the Substack mobile application. You can always submit a question through one of the existing threads.
In one episode you mentioned that there is less known about the Mycenaeans than about the Minoans. I was very surprised to hear that as I thought that we know almost nothing about the Minoans.
Maybe you can talk more about who the Minoans were and what we know about them?
