i'm afraid there was no booba besides the imagination of a modern coomer > several frescoes have been found, on crete normally in partial fragments which require a good deal of reconstruction; sometimes only 5% of a reconstructed section is original. > evans, the first archaeologist to excavate minoan knossos, hired the swiss artist emile gilliron and his son, emile, as the chief fresco restorers at knossos. the restorations have been often criticised subsequently;and are now viewed with a "healthy skepticism" as "overconfident" by specialists. in one important case a figure of a monkey was turned into a boy; in fact human figures do not usually appear in "landscape" fresco scenes.
