I don't have evidence from your textbook but here is an answer that you can prove. Agriculture greatly increase the development of permanent civilizations. It allowed those who were nomadic the ability to settle and not have to constantly move when the resources around them were depleted. It was ultimately positive because it allowed nomadic tribes to settle and not have to constantly move for new resourceses.

the minoan civilization flourished in the middle bronze age on the island of crete located in the eastern mediterranean from c. 2000 bce until c. 1500 bce. with their unique art and architecture, and the spread of their ideas through contact with other cultures across the aegean, the minoans made a significant contribution to the development of western european civilization as it is known today. labyrinth-like palace complexes, vivid frescoes depicting scenes such as bull-leaping and processions, fine gold jewelry, elegant stone vases, and pottery with vibrant decorations of marine life are all particular features of minoan crete.  

so basically their unique way of ding arts, as well as architecture.
