minotaur of crete
king Midas' bull or Minotaur lived in the labryth.
The Labyrinth, at Knossos on Crete.
A minotaur was the mythological beast that was half man and half bull. It was the result of a sexual union between the queen Pasiphae (wife of king Minos) and a bull. He lived in the Cretan Labyrinth, and was killed by the hero Theseus with the help of Ariadne.
Theseus slayed the minotaur, who was half man, half bull.
The creature was the Minotaur, born of Queen Pasiphäe and the Cretan bull.
It was to imprison his wife Pasiphae's son, the half-man, half-bull monster, the Minotaur.
The Minotaur, which was a man-eating fusion of a bull and a human.
Daedalus built the labyrinth for King Minos who wanted a place to keep the Minotaur who was the son of I think his wife and a cow. It was half human half bull and every 7ish years King Minos would send in 7ish sacrifices. It lived there until Theseus killed it.
The Minotaur - a half-man and half-bull creature. The King of Crete - Minos - confined it to a labyrinth created by Daedalus and fed it human sacrifices - young people from Athens sent as 'tribute' to Minos. It was slain by Theseus with the help of Ariadne, daughter of Minos.
labyrinth is either a) a very complicated maze with the goal in the centre, made famous by the greek myth in which a man had to escape from one or he would be eaten by a minotaur (half man, half bull) or b) a movie about a girl whose little brother is taken from her home by an evil man (David Bowie plays him, look it up on imdb.com) and she must go through his "Labyrinth" to save her brother.
I think the story you are talking about is the Minotaur which was half-bull half-human. The Minotaur was put in the Labyrinth to kill unwanted travelers. It was killed by Theseus.
Theseus was the hero who slew the Minotaur. He then used Ariadne\'s string to get out of the Labyrinth.
