In Cretan mythology, Theseus slayed the minotaur. He did it with the help of a ball of string and Ariadne, who knew the minotaur in some ways too intimately. Not that way. The minotaur is a half bul half man . http://thenorthnode.wordpress.com/2008/10/21/theseus-and-the-minotaur/ Very nice looking blogsite, with a synopsis of the myth with a bit of discussion concerning wandering up that particular emotional labyrinthine alley surrounding it.
