there were the minotaurs minuons
Seven
The Minotaur was the child of Pasiphae, queen of Crete, wife of Minos. She was punished by Poseidon 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.
Just men and young men.
Friar Laurence says young men's love resides not only in their hearts, but in their eyes.
yes because he used to dance when he was young men.
Seven
According to the story of Theseus, Athens was required by Minos of Crete to send 7 young men and 7 young women to be a sacrifice for the Minotaur. It was during the third such event that Theseus slayed the Minotaur. So as few as 14 and as many as 21.
He was being sacrificed to the minotaur. The idea was that seven men and women were sent to be sacrifced to the minotaur and Theseus volunteered because he planned to kill it.
The minotaur is a creature from greek mythology, half bull and half men.
The myth of Theseus says the the Minotaur ate young people from Athens. King Minos won Athens and forced the king to give up seven young men and seven young maidens each year to feed the minotaur.
To replicate the sacred fire from Olympus for the inauguration of the Winter Carnival, a group of senior men sacrifices a young black bull.
The labyrinth was created by the inventor Daedalus, and was then kept in the maze by King Minos of Crete. King Minos used the minotaur as sacrifices of young men.

King Minos lived in ancient Crete. He attacked Athens to take young men and women as food for his pet monster.
Well, Minoans were skilled bull leapers. Young men and women would grab the horns of a charging bull and use their horns to propel themselves up and over the raging beast. This then later ties into the Minotaur, who was half bull and half human.
In the Hellenistic versions of the Minotaur myth, Daedalus was Athenian. It bothered him that the prison he built for the Minotaur was also used to imprison young Athenian men and women to serve as sacrifice for the monster. He probably regretted it more when he was imprisoned in it himself, through.
In Greek mythology, young men and women were sacrificed and offered in tribute to Crete from Athens in relation to the Minotaur.This occurred every 9 years and 7 men and women were offered.
