A thing that has always fascinated me about the Minotaur myth is that it can be interpreted as the Mycaneans conquering Minoa. It's fascinating how history so gracefully turns into myth.

Perhaps you don't know, since this is very specific, don't feel forced to answer this. While searching some stuff for an essay, i found that apparently there are two different 'King Minos' in the folklore. The myth being told to foreigners usually is the one regarding the human sacrifices to the Minotaur, but they never mention the thing of Minos becoming one of the judges of Hell, or, well, better said, of Hades. Are these two Minos different? The judge and the minotaur one? Are they the same? Or is there even a historical Minos? i can't trust the internet and Wikipedia doesn't list any sources either 🥲

Hello! Yes, he was the same! If you notice, the three judges of the underworld had a background in being kings or very just or doing something profound for humanity. Minos was the one that reigned in Crete and "culturized" the Cretans, and he took advice from Zeus, his father, on how to justly rule his people.

I did some research on that, and then the final clue I saw it the Greek archeologist The Mythologist. I'll link the video below. It's in Greek but... just for verification reasons. I relied heavily on him because he is thorough in his research and generally quite reliable.

He also mentions that in some sources there was a 4th judge, Triptolemos!
