Name source
In ancient times, there was a king named Minos who ruled Crete, an island in the Aegean Sea. Minos' son was murdered in Atticus, Athens. In order to avenge his son, Minos challenged the people of Athens. Under God's punishment, Athens was full of famine and plague. Under the challenge of Minos, the Athenians made peace with King Minos. Minos asked them to send seven pairs of virgins to Crete every nine years.
Minos built a maze with countless palaces in Crete. The roads in the maze were tortuous and no one could enter. Deep in the maze, Minos kept a beast named minotaur. Athens sent seven pairs of men and women at a time, all of which were dedicated to Minotaur.
