Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Palace at Knossos is known for its confusing layout and seemingly haphazard design, which has led some to speculate that it was intentionally designed to confuse potential invaders. This confusion may have contributed to the Greek myth of the Minotaur, which was said to inhabit a labyrinthine maze beneath the palace. The other options, such as the Treasury of Atreus, Grave Circles A and B, and the Lion Gate, do not have strong connections to the myth of the Minotaur.
