<p>[QUOTE="Bert Gedin, post: 3150105, member: 92556"]Today I got a ?children's booklet about Greek Life. Briefly, it tells of a legendary hero called Theseus, who slew a Minotaur, i.e. a hybrid monster, half bull, half man. He was kept by King Minos in a labyrinth at Knossos, Crete. This Minotaur was different to the bulls we have been discussing - his body was human, but his head was that of a bull. A distant relation of the Man-faced bulls ? Anyway, if any of you are holidaying in Crete, don't forget - beware of the Minotaurs !!![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
