A dialect, language, or cultural tradition associated with the Eteocretes or original Cretan peoples.
Derived from Eteocretes with Greek grammatical forms; refers to the cultural or linguistic practices of the indigenous Cretan population.
Eteocreton inscriptions are one of archaeology's great mysteries—we have ancient Cretan writing we can't fully translate, so we can only guess at what the pre-Greek inhabitants of Crete were saying!
