In Minoan art, the bull is associated with male virility and strength.
It came from the entertainment of bull-jumping, where entertainers did a less-pernicious variant of today's bull-fighting by undertaking gymnastics over a bull's back in an arena. This artwork is visible in Minoan buildings which have survived.

In Greek mythology, the bull is associated with Zeus because he took the form of a bull to abduct Europa, a Phoenician princess, and bring her to Crete. This event led to the establishment of the Minoan civilization and symbolized Zeus's power and ability to shape human destiny.

I NEED THE AWSERS! art and culture
Ancient Minoan refers to the civilization that flourished on the island of Crete during the Aegean Bronze Age, approximately from 2600 to 1100 BCE. The term "Minoan" specifically describes the culture, art, and archaeological findings associated with this civilization, named after the legendary King Minos. Therefore, while ancient Minoan pertains to the culture and people of ancient Crete, they are not synonymous; Minoan is a descriptor of the civilization that developed on the island of Crete.
