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.

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.
In ancient Greek mythology, Athenian youth were sacrificed to the Minotaur as part of a tribute to King Minos of Crete. This ritual was a consequence of Athens' defeat in a war against Crete, resulting in the demand for seven young men and seven young women to be sent as offerings to the beast, which resided in the Labyrinth. The sacrifices aimed to appease Minos and prevent further retribution against Athens. Ultimately, the hero Theseus volunteered to slay the Minotaur, seeking to end this grim fate for his fellow citizens.
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.

In "Cruel Tribute," the events stemming from King Minos's actions include the imposition of a tribute on Athens, requiring the city to send seven young men and seven maidens to be sacrificed to the Minotaur in the labyrinth. This cruel demand is a direct consequence of the death of his son, Androgeus, leading to a cycle of vengeance and tragedy. Additionally, these actions set the stage for Theseus's heroic journey to confront the Minotaur and ultimately challenge Minos's tyranny.
King Minos lived in ancient Crete. He attacked Athens to take young men and women as food for his pet monster.
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.
