It’s probably a little fanciful to believe that Minoan religious ceremonies, carried on in secret, provide the mystery cults of the Hellenistic era. That is getting pretty close to the nonsense beliefs that the Templars were the secret founders of the Masonic movement, or that both were preserving the secret religion of the Gnostics, or the Ancient Egyptians, or some other such Dan Brown nonsense.
