        The myth of the labyrinth of King Minos is based on the ruins of this palace, it was ancient and complex even for the ancient Greeks

        They let the smoke rise out from holes in the wall or, alternatively, just let it hang around in the rafters until it slowly dissipated. The latter was common in places like Finland up until the 20th Century. Fireplaces and chimneys became common only in the late Middle Ages and even then only among the wealthy.

          didn't ancient houses have a hole in the middle of the room or something?

          huh, thought that was just the artist's oversight. surely there must have been indoor hearths to keep warm, how do we know they didn't leave holes in the ceiling?

            to clarify the question, why did you mention holes in the wall as the (only?) ventilation option?

            IIRC in Mesoamerica, homes didn't have any sort of chimney to allow fumes from cooking in the home (at least commoner homes like pic) to get out either, though I could be wrong as it's been a while since I looked into culinary stuff.

            I do know sometimes you also had outdoor comals and cooking areas, but they were often indoors
