Theseus and Minotaur


Theseus, a demigod, son of Aegean, king of Athens, raised by his maternal grandfather in Argolida, had the Centaur Chiron as his master. During his long deeds ​​as a hero, he killed the Minotaur in the labyrinth of Crete with the help of Ariadne. After some time living together, Theseus abandoned her on the island of Naxos.

Teseu, semi-deus filho de Egeu, rei de Atenas, criado na Argólida por seu avô materno, teve o Centauro Quiron como mestre. Durante os seus longos feitos como herói matou o Minotauro no labirinto de Creta com a ajuda de Ariadne. Abandonou-a na ilha de Naxos depois de algum tempo de vida em comum.
