"The story of Theseus and the Minotaur is one of the best-known Greek myths. It has inspired plays, films, books, and countless fantasy games. The Minotaur, originally a unique monster, has spawned an entire race of bull-headed ogres in games like Dungeons & Dragons. But the slaying of the Minotaur is only one part of an entire cycle of tales recounting Theseus' adventures. The purpose of this book is to collect together information from a wide range of contradictory sources and organize it as clearly as possible without losing the diversity represented by the different versions. It also seeks to set the stories in their historical contexts - the times they represent and the times in which they were written down - and to show how they might reflect actual Bronze Age events that have been established by historians and archeologists."--
