What is the "Labyrinth"?
In Greek mythology, the Labyrinth was an intricate maze designed by the architect Daedalus for King Minos of Crete. It was built to imprison the Minotaur, a monstrous creature with the body of a man and the head of a bull. The Labyrinth was so complex that anyone who entered it would have difficulty finding their way out. The hero Theseus later navigated the Labyrinth with the help of Ariadne's thread, which he used to trace his path back after killing the Minotaur. The Labyrinth symbolizes complexity and the challenge of overcoming seemingly insurmountable obstacles.
