Excellent as usual. I have been to Phaistos twice and have discovered different things each visit. It strikes me that Phaistos isn't a palace as such, but a market place, a forum if you will. The king, governor etc lived close by so the living place for Phaistos would be Agia Triada. There are a couple of options for Knossos. I do not believe that princes would be happy living next door to workshops most of which would have fires - too noisy and too hot (I base this opinion on our own precious princes here in the UK).
Thanks for watching, for your interesting observations and for your comment 😊 More and more researchers agree that these "palaces" in Crete were not the residences of rulers, but some kind of cultural, economic and religious centers.
