Theseus

Beings

The Athenian hero of the Labyrinth and Minotaur. Not Heracles as the labors twin alone, and not Minotaur as the beast alone.

Hellenic religion

  • Theseus appears in Hellenic religion.

    Pausanias recounts Theseus’s Attic deeds, synoecism speech, and hero cult marks around Athens and the Isthmus road. A named Theseus in that periegesis, not the minotaur already walked alone and not every hero dump.
