"Two well-known legends; that of the Trojan Horse, used to break the siege of the city of Troy, and of the terrible Minotaur, the half-bull, half-man creature living in its Labyrinth, came from the wonderful Greek world that flourished after 2000 BC. This book recounts the fascinating stories behind the discovery of two fabulous sites in the Aegean region which are linked to these legends." .
