    More information about the Minoan Labyrinth:

    The labyrinth in Greek mythology was a complex building construction in Knossos.

    It was built by the engineer Daedalus for the mythical king of Crete, Minos.

    The reason it was built was to isolate the Minotaur, a creature half man and half bull.

    Daedalus himself constructed the labyrinth so elaborately and intricately that even he managed with difficulty to find his way out when he completed the work.

    Athens had lost a war in Crete and as a tribute was forced to send seven young men and seven girls to be sacrificed to the Minotaur.

    Theseus, the son of the king of Athens, volunteered to be one of the group in order to kill the Minotaur and free Athens from the rule of Crete.

    King Minos’ daughter Ariadne gave him a ball of thread to unravel it as he passed through the labyrinth, thus enabling him to remember his steps and after his act to be able to find his way back.

    Theseus entered the labyrinth, killed the Minotaur and escaped from Crete, taking Ariadne with him.

    This is one of the most important Greek myths.

    It has been kept alive over the centuries among the labyrinths of the whole world!

    The oldest known form of labyrinth is the “Cretan” labyrinth design.

    The seven rings of paths are easily created by drawing a cross and four dots and then joining them together to form eight concentric circles,

    leaving seven empty rings in between.

    It is a fascinating figure that has been leaving its mark on the history of civilisation for 5000 years.
