Minos hid him in the constructed Dedaly Knossos labyrinth in Crete where to him criminals, and also each nine years of 7 girls and 7 young men sent from Athens (or 7 children rushed every year on a consuming. Captives died, wandering and not finding a way out. According to a number of modern historians, the history of the Minotaur is the ciphered narration about collision of Indo-European cultures with cultures of the autochthonic "people of the sea" (esteeming a bull) in which Indo-Europeans were the winner. In the graphic work I have carried out communication, between the Greek legend and a Holocaust. Work is performed by colored pencils on paper of 59х42 cm
