The Minotaur lived in which location?

• A. Mount Olympus
• B. The Labyrinth
• C. Crete
• D. The Underworld

Answer: (B)

Understanding where the Minotaur lives comes down to distinguishing a creature’s actual dwelling from a broader place. In Greek myth, the Minotaur is kept in a maze—the Labyrinth—built specifically to imprison him. That maze is the Minotaur’s home, not the broader island of Crete or other realms. Mount Olympus is where the gods reside, and the Underworld is the realm of the dead, so they don’t fit as the Minotaur’s living space. Crete is the island where the maze stood, but the Minotaur’s immediate residence is the Labyrinth itself. So the Labyrinth is the best answer because it names the precise place where he lived.
