Yes it's me and Yes I know, that's what everyone does, right? Knossos is the largest Bronze Age archaeological site on Crete and has been called Europe's oldest city. Settled as early as the Neolithic period, the name Knossos survives from ancient Greek references to the major city of Crete. Thanks to Bill Woodhouse for the photo.

Come at me, Theseus - Minoan Greek Mythology Minotaur

In ancient history, the Minoan civilization was located on the island of Crete and other Aegean Island. It was the first advanced bronze age civilization in Europe. It is famous for king Minos, the Minotaur, and the labyrinth and palace of Knossos.

Is the legendary Minotaur your favorite mythological creature? Do you love ancient Greek mythology? This funny Minotaur design is for you! The Minotaur was designed by king Minos of Crete & defeated by the Athenian hero Theseus in the labyrinth at Knossos.

The Minotaur or “Bull of Minos” is a creature from Greek mythology with the body of a man, the head and tail of a bull that inhabited the labyrinth of the King of Crete, Minos. Legend has it that this labyrinth was built by Daedalus, a Greek architect, in order to protect the population from this ferocious creature.

I saw a sad-looking statue of the Minotaur (under Theseus, in a pieceby by Canova) in the V&A in London, and was struck by his mostly-human form. I thought he might, like Medusa, seek a better reputation: having been abandoned by his own beastly progenitor (the Cretan bull), imprisoned immediately by a cruel stepfather in a maze-like prison (Minos of Knossos), and forced to kill his only playmates, Asterion (yes, he had a name, the same name as his stepfather’s own stepfather) is now seeking legal representation for paternal abandonment and defamation, and that’s just the start. Looking sharp, Mr Asterion sir! Artwork and photographic background (The Grand Staircase, Knossos Palace) made by Jenks while visiting Crete.
