Actually, there were five: Periphetes, Cercyon, Procrustes, Sciron, and Sinis.
Theseus killed Periphetes, the club bearer. He killed the robber Sinis who tied travelers to trees bent down to the ground. He killed a robber called Sciron. He stopped a year-King called Cercyon refused to be sacrificed. He also killed Procrustes who had a bed that if you didn't fit it, he chopped off their feet or stretched them. But Theseus is most famous for killing the Minotaur.
Theseis is the story of Theseus
Two women married Theseus. These were Hippolyta and Phaedra. Theseus did not have both as wives simultaneously.
For love of Theseus.
Actually, there were five: Periphetes, Cercyon, Procrustes, Sciron, and Sinis.
He was not necessarily tricked, but more or less forced. Procrustes invited Theseus into his home where he was fed. A servant told Theseus not to sleep in the bed. Theseus forced Procrustes to test his bed and he was killed.
Theseus faces a physical conflict with Procrustes, a bandit who forces travelers to fit his bed by stretching or amputating their limbs. This conflict highlights the brutality and tyranny of Procrustes, as Theseus must defeat him to end his cruel acts.
Athens
Theseus was the hero who defeated the Minotaur with his bare hands.
It wasn't a Greek god that defeated the minotaur but it was however a hero named Theseus who defeated him in the Labyrinth.
I think you mean "killed the Minotaur", because the Minotaur wasn't "found", it was born to Minos' wife, the Queen of Crete. In that case, it was Theseus
Hippolyta is conquered in battle by Theseus and taken as a prisoner. Theseus eventually wins her over with his charm and persuades her to marry him.
A centaur is a mythological creature with a human head, torso, and arms. They also have the body and legs of a horse. They were defeated and driven off by Theseus.
He was to sail with white sails
She never was Hippolyta or Antiope depending on which Greek myth you read was a queen of the Amazons and in Greek myth was either abducted or wooed in to becoming Theseus wife or concubine.
In Cretan mythology, Theseus slayed the minotaur. He did it with the help of a ball of string and Ariadne, who knew the minotaur in some ways too intimately. Not that way. The minotaur is a half bul half man . http://thenorthnode.wordpress.com/2008/10/21/theseus-and-the-minotaur/ Very nice looking blogsite, with a synopsis of the myth with a bit of discussion concerning wandering up that particular emotional labyrinthine alley surrounding it.
