Created by: Seath and Trevor The Minotaur Created by: Seath and Trevor

Minotaur A monster half man half bull born of queen Pasiphae's god inflicted infatuation with a bull. Terror of the Labyrinth. the Minotaur was eventually killed by Theseus. The monster is generally depicted as having the head of a bull and the body of a man. But in the Middle Ages, artists portrayed a man's head and torso on a bull's body.

Information. The Minotaur was a monster with a head of a bull and body of a man. Theseus offered to be one of the men to be given to the minotaur. When Theseus arrived in Crete, Ariadne, the daughter of the king fell in love with him at first sight. She gave him a sword and spool of string he could use to find his way back out of the labyrinth which the Minotaur lived. Theseus went into the maze and found the Minotaur sleeping near the center. He killed the monster and escaped with the others from Athens.

How the minotaur was created to have a strong desire for a white bull. In some versions, she mistook her husband for a beast, and saw the bull as the king, so she had his child, a monster with a human body and a bull's head. Minos and Pasiphae, ashamed to reveal him to the world, had Dedalus build a castle just for him, the labyrinth. Because the monster feasted on human flesh, Minos would demand from subject lands each year a tribute of seven young men and seven women, that he would then lock inside the labyrinth for the Minotaur to hunt down.

Where the minotaur lived King Minos had Daedalus the best architect ever lived to build a labyrinth a complicated maze,one you will never escape) to hold his step-son, the Minotaur. So the Minotaur resides in the Labyrinth. In the labyrinth beneath King Minos' Palace in Knossos.

More information Some time earlier, the sea god Poseidon had sent Minos a pure-white bull to be sacrificed in his honor. When the king saw the magnificent creature, however, he refused to kill it. This angered Poseidon, who arranged for Minos's wife, Pasiphae, to fall in love with the bull. The offspring of their unnatural mating was the Minotaur.
