Theseus was a hero and king of Athens. His most notable accomplishments included killing the Minotaur and transforming his city into a major regional power.
Ariadne, daughter of Minos, was the Cretan princess who helped Theseus defeat the Minotaur. Abandoned by Theseus on the island of Naxos, she later married the god Dionysus.
The Minotaur was a hybrid monster (half-bull, half-man) born of the unorthodox union between the queen of Crete and a beautiful bull. The Minotaur was hidden from the world in the Labyrinth, a giant maze, where it was eventually slain by the Athenian hero Theseus.
