In Greek mythology, the Minotaur, a creature with the body of a man and the head of a bull, was fed a tribute of seven Athenian boys and seven Athenian girls every nine years. This practice was a punishment imposed on Athens by King Minos of Crete after the death of his son. The tributes were sent into the Labyrinth, where the Minotaur resided. Ultimately, the hero Theseus ended this gruesome tradition by slaying the Minotaur.
