The correct answer is B) They were a great seagoing power.

The most distinguishing factor of the Minoans was that they were a great seagoing power.

When talking about ancient Greece, the Minoan civilization has a prominent place in history. During the Bronze Age Aegean civilization, the Minoans flourished on the island of Crete where many stories were written about their dominion of navigation. Archeologists have found ruins of its architecture, ceramics, tools, and the writing system that confirm that they were great navigators and traders. Their decorated frescoes were something to admire.
