Geocache Description:


Welcome to the Florida Finders Fest 2021 Forest Fables geo-art, brought to you by the Forest Minions! These caches are not at their posted coordinates.

In Greek mythology, the Minotaur is a mythical creature portrayed in Classical times with the head and tail of a bull and the body of a man or, as described by Roman poet Ovid, a being "part man and part bull". He dwelt at the center of the Labyrinth, which was an elaborate maze-like construction designed by the architect Daedalus and his son Icarus, on the command of King Minos of Crete. The Minotaur was eventually killed by the Athenian hero Theseus.

 

The term Minotaur derives from Ancient Greek, a compound of the name Minos and the noun bull, translated as "the Bull of Minos". In Crete, the Minotaur was known by the name Asterion, a name shared with Minos' foster-father.

 

Judging by the description, what meal could Theseus have prepared, after killing the Minotaur?

A: Chef Salad = N29° 28.802' W81° 48.619'

B: Fish & Chips = N29° 28.802' W81° 48.609'

C: Steak = N29° 28.802' W81° 48.599'
