In Greek mythology, the figure associated with the myth of the Minotaur is Theseus. He is a hero renowned for his bravery and intelligence, who volunteers to enter the labyrinth designed by Daedalus to face the monstrous Minotaur, which is half-man, half-bull. With the help of Ariadne’s thread, Theseus navigates the labyrinth, defeats the creature, and escapes. This myth encompasses themes of heroism, the struggle against fate, and the triumph of cleverness over brute strength.
