Too many people and poor attention to visual impairments if you are not travelling with tour operators ! It was a nightmare under the hot sun!

Of the things at Knossos, this is one of the more interesting because it has retained some of the authenticity. It also highlights the importance of the bull symbolism in the Minoan culture.

The resting place of heroes: So there is definitely not a bull horns statue here. However, there are some small ruins and a grave stone marker with a X on it. I presume there was some great battle between some evil (the Minotaur?) and the X-Men, destroying the bulls horn statue and claiming the life of at least one X-man. RIP fallen heroes, saving us from a menace we never even knew existed. (It's either that, our someone placed the marker in the wrong spot ;) )
