Legend monster Almainoutur

Count of Greek mythology is an important part of the system of beliefs and concepts of the ancients, however, one does not realize its importance in our daily life only when we remember in our daily lives for example, remember (Atlas), which carries the planet over his shoulder at Tcefhana's Atlas of the countries, which contains a set of geographical maps, or when one of them describes a beautiful girl Vicbhaa b (Venus) goddess of Beauty, or at the mention of the Apollo space shuttle, this time to review the mythical object last mentioned in Greek mythology, a Almainoutur Minotaur.

On the island of Crete, quiet and situated in the Mediterranean Sea near the islands of Greece, the other created a unique civilization actual it is a civilization (Almaino) and capital (Konosus) that city gone by that was once a thriving five centuries has been the island of Crete, the cradle of one of the most heinous mythical creatures of Greek at all is (Mainoutur) This bloody frightening monster who had a bull's head and human body and there are weak reports say that the bull was the bottom, it is important that he was intimidating and frightening, it kills anyone who dares to approach him.

The word is derived from the word Mainoutur Maino - Mino-Taurus Taurus Greek is composed of the first Mkotain Maino Mino, which refers to the king or civilization Minoc Almainoah and the other Taurus and Taurus the bull, which means, that is, its meaning is "Thor Minoc."

After boarding (Minoc) to the throne in Crete with his brothers, was struggling to impose his authority in the country, in order to achieve his goal for the blessings of Poseidon (god of the depths of the sea and the ancient Greeks) Fender has offered a sacrifice blisters are white as Snow White Once approved Poseidon's desire to achieve Minoc. When the check for Minoc wants and what he had to sacrifice a white bull in honor of Poseidon but decided to keep its beauty as the effusion.

Minoc had to bear the punishment for not Poseidon's has met his promise they made gods of love (Aphrodite) of his wife (Basivaúa) and the reality is crazy in love with the bull from the sea, a Cretan bull.

I asked (Basivaúa) of the architect Alambara (Daedalus) to make it a model for a cow of wood hollowed from the inside in order to have what you want it and mating (bonking) white bull who loved him and resulted in this association (Mainoutur) monster legendary played (Basivaúa) sponsored by the period of his childhood.

Quickly grew (Mainoutur) and became a predator and it was unusual that combines human and beast as you do not diet natural source as it was devouring human beings and eating their flesh to satisfy his hunger, he received King Minoc advice from Revelation (Oracle) at the Temple of Delphi, which is to build a maze to be the giant's dwelling (Mainoutur) stood up (Daedalus) built near the Palace (Minoc) in the city Konosus, Almainoutur were detained in this place to run between his passes unable to get out, and became the maze of the most important features of the island of Crete

And remember that the Greek myths talented architect (Daedalus) was also the first who tried to aviation history and is worth mentioning that recent archaeological discoveries have shown the effects of the maze in the ground under the ruins of Palace Minoc

Means Allapernt labyrinth maze or labyrinth in the language of Greek which is about passages and curves are interrelated and coral are extremely complex and it is very difficult to get out from it the idea of ​​building wilderness idea, which helped get rid of the disaster biological solved on the island, the quiet but the problem did not end at this point, The tragedy has not come yet.

The tragedy began when he won the king's son (Minoc) Championship Olympic Games held in Athens, always picking on a lot of gifts and prizes, making the son of a king of Athens fuming hatred and anger so he sends some thugs to attack the son of a king of Crete and Amzkoh apart

This was crime enough to revolt the king of Crete, who knew what happened to his son in detail so he equipped an army tractor and marched him to Athens, he slaughtered many of the Athenians, but was only so much so he siege of the city, forcing all inhabitants to surrender, and this was the siege exhausted for the people of Athens The scarcity of their water and do the food for a long time, what was the (Aijus) King of Athens, but the Send to (Minoc) to offer him the peace, but the grieving father refused to peace and said that Athens are not compensated for his son, however, before the Magistrate that dates back to Crete The other 7 are strong boys and seven girls to virgins thrown into Almainoutur

Did not find that the king of Athens, agrees to the show, which was repeated each year and in all other accounts of 9 years, or face a war against the then powerful civilization of Crete.

Gone through the years and the people of Athens to pay this tax expensive of their children for young people to the back (Theseus), the son of King of Athens, of a peasant woman, who insisted on his father to send him to Crete with a group of young men and girls face a Almainoutur, the Theseus feels Bmzlh his people and he had a hope that the Bara Almainoutur to save his people from a high price and end the era of humiliation, and after great effort, persuaded (Theseus) his father to go rode the ship with his companions Makharan the sea to the island of Crete, and Theseus had promised his father to drop the sail black of the ship and raise the sail white instead of him a sign to his father that he returned alive while watching his father return from the horizon, a ship on the beach, although not realized survive will remain a black sail, and thus knows that he met his death in front of Almainoutur.

 And reached the ship to (Konosus) and took the victims Almainoutur to their fate ugly, and it was natural to pass these victims on the king to see how are young people are strong and how are the girls beauties but (ARIADNE), daughter of the King (Minoc) very impressed hero Athenian (Theseus) handsome stringy Like muscles Champions Greeks, and has promised to marry her that he helped him to get rid of that bloody beast, who is originally from her brother and mother's side forgot that the brother (Theseus) is the murderer of her brother

I decided to save him from the clutches of Almainoutur, offered him a ball from the strings and a sword Patarra At the moment of entry of the victims to the Allapernt (Theseus) to link the thread at the entrance, guided back to him after he kills Almainoutur

And wait (Theseus) until the night comes and the infiltration of the corridors in search of warning for rivals terrible, and come the confrontation when he found the beast sleeping Fbaderh multiple stab wounds ruled him and extinguished breath forever and succeeded (Theseus) to kill Almainoutur and returned to marry the daughter of the King also promised her and flees with her from the island Crete, accompanied by the rest of the young men who saved them from the fate it by Mainoutur, but for some reason he forgot (Theseus) during the return trip on the ship to raise the sail White Clean the father who watched Vdom vessel that his son was killed and stoned the same in the sea saddened him to die by drowning.

 Meh interpretation of historical myth refers to the time when Crete dominant political and cultural in the Aegean Sea, where Athens was the fledgling new (and perhaps also other cities in other Greek) is subject to a tribute for the benefit of Crete is likely that this tribute is included boys and girls to sacrifice their sacrifices human terms indicated by archaeological discoveries on the existence of Othelam in a large number of skeletons of human to the massacres Haith Thorlm not indicate only the sacrifice, but only included the practice of ritual cannibalism was made ​​sacrifices sacrifices in honor of the god worshiped Authority ox is being implemented in a ceremony overseen by a priest wearing a head ox or mask which explains Almainator imaging may be a priest, a son of the king (Minoc) and when the cities of Greece were able to be free from domination of Crete legend Almainoutur worked on the formation of the religious consciousness of the princes Alhelinyin inspired by the beliefs Almainoyen.

Is likely to be an infinite abandoned quarry on the island of Crete is the original location of the maze of old Almundkorh in the legendary Greek after which he found a complex network of tunnels under the ground, where a team of scientists on a mission to explore the effects of the quarry in the summer of 2009 near the town of Gortaan in south of the island and found a maze like the one I talked about the myth, but away from the Palace (Minoc) located in the city (Konosus) 20 miles (approximately 32 km), and the city (Konosus) has always been synonymous with the legend Mainoutur since uncovered archaeological them a century ago .

 Archaeologists believe they have found a maze of complex inside a cave near the city (Gortaan), which was the capital of the Romans on the island of Crete is the candidate most acceptable for the maze, which I mentioned in the legend, after it was previously thought and is always said to more than 600 thousand tourists visit the ruins of the city (Konosus) a year as the site certainly similarities to the short (Minoc) the legendary king who is supposed that the dark maze built next to it to accommodate Mainoutur fearsome creature.

Some writers and poets that Almainoutur is a mixture of brute strength and nobility in the human psyche and psychologists say that man is not Bbashra whole or bull the whole it is a mix between this and that and the fact that the myth of Almainoutur had created for itself a special place among all the Greek mythology, has received the legend in a lot of books relevant studies in Greek mythology, which inspired the imaginations of authors and writers, novelists and they bring the masterpieces of those interesting legend.

Indicates work (Dante's Inferno) to Almainoutur where incarnation is the phenomenon of Photography (William Blake), who symbolizes the hell twelve layers of hell are reflected in the section (Kanto) 12 and sections 11 to 15, where he was on (Dante) and his mentor (Virgil ) passing the steep rocks in order to prepare to enter the seventh circle of hell Vusbanda monster who was among those "damned of the nature of violent and bloodthirsty," but this monster did not mention by name only in line 25, and the moment that is reminiscent of the (Virgil), King of Athens emerged Almainoutur angry and distracted, he may (Virgil) and (Dante) rushed to the centaurs (object legendary body of a horse and head of human beings and carries a bow and arrow) who guard (Vlegthon) the river of blood is a river's legendary Greek mythology do not see this link between Almainoutur with the centaurs in any reference classic images of William Blake Almaenotorquenua of Centaur itself.

 It is worth mentioning that the Dante's Inferno is the first chapter of "Divine Comedy" is the epic poem written by the fourteenth century, and tells Dante in his journey to "hell," according to the canonical perspective and be (Virgil), Roman poet mentor in that strange journey. The Divine Comedy, a journey of self to God where the hell where the recognition and rejection of her sins.
