Minoan-Mycenaean Religion, and Its Survival in Greek Religion

Martin Nilsson's The Minoan- Mycenaean Religion and its Survival in Greek Religion has, as its title suggests, two main themes: firstly, it describes the artifacts of Minoan and Mycenaean civilizations in terms of their single religion and thereby shows various aspects of the Mother Goddess cult, the basis of their religion; secondly, it aims to show that this religion survives to some degree in the religion of the historic Greeks.
