[edit] Comments

Hey Guys, I was wondering if whomever wrote this article concerning Asterion would also, please, cite his-- or her-- references for those of us wishing to further investigate this topic; I am particularly interested in which other scholars also directly associate him with The Minotaur (besides Karl).

Thanks a lot!

Not necessarily a "scholar" but Borges refers to the minotaur as Asterion in The House of Asterion. Finding a bibliographical collection of Borges works might be a good place to start some research. Hope it helps -Knapp 20:28, 16 Nov, 2006 (UTC) P.S. (7:33 17 Nov): He makes a reference to Apollodorus' Library at the beginning of the story.
