The Minotaur & Ariadne. A monster with the body of a man and the head of a bull which was born from the Union of Pasiphae and the sacred bull of Poseidon. Minos closed him up inside the Labyrinth, a dark underground maze of passages which was designed and built under the Palace of Knossos by the Athenian craftsman Daedalus especially for this purpose. It was fed on human flesh and especially on the seven young men and seven young women which the Athenians had to send every year after their defeat in the war with Minos. It was killed by Theseus. Daughter of Minos and Pasiphae. She fell in love with the Athenian hero, Theseus, when he came to Knossos to kill the Minotaur. Although she helped him greatly to succeed in his quest, with the famous skein of thread that she gave him, the ungrateful Theseus left her in Naxos where his ship put in on the way back to Athens. The god Dionyssos found her there, married her and took her up to mount Olympus.
