Take a unique trip back in time to the Palace of Knossos, reimagined during the 5th century BCE, with @Assassins_UK and @Ubisoft at our current exhibition Labyrinth: Knossos, Myth & Reality. #LabyrinthAshmolean ashmolean.org/exhibition/lab…


Look closely and you'll find a miniscule minotaur at the centre of this labyrinth. Dating to the 3rd century coin was minted at Knossos. Discover the Palace of Knossos, the search for the Labyrinth and the myth behind it at #LabyrinthAshmolean, closing 30 July.

Today is #WorldOceansDay 🌊 Octopuses appear on many objects from Crete. Some are incredibly naturalistic and some are more stylised, just like the one that inspired this animation by Matilde Senos👀🐙 #LabyrinthAshmolean includes many octopus-inspired objects like this one.


Happy Anniversary to Oxford's @AshmoleanMuseum, which opened its doors 340 years ago on 24 May 1683! A small Bodleian cohort got lost in the excellent #LabyrinthAshmolean exhibition this week. We were charmed by the octopuses. ashmolean.org

Enter #LabyrinthAshmolean and you'll be greeted by this striking minotaur. This minotaur is a Roman copy of a Greek bronze sculpture from the 5th Century BCE. A figure of Theseus originally stood alongside, about to strike him down.⁠ Book your tickets: ashmolean.org/exhibition/lab…

I love this exhibition! 😍 You come face-to-face with the Minotaur. Probably a Roman marble copy of an earlier Greek bronze sculpture. AD 1-300. Part of a fountain found in Athens. On loan from the National Archaeological Museum, Athens. #LabyrinthAshmolean #Archaeology

From the Palace of Knossos to the myth of Theseus & the Minotaur, the subject of #LabyrinthAshmolean has inspired stories, artworks & objects for thousands of years. If you’re a video game fan then you’ve probably explored the ruins of the Palace of Knossos, virtually, yourself.

This object weighs 29kg, a standard weight in the Eastern Mediterranean which was known as a ‘talent’. It would've been used to weigh commodities such as textiles & metals for trade.⁠ See this and more intriguing octopus-inspired Minoan objects at #LabyrinthAshmolean. 🐙

Throughout history we have been fascinated by the stories and symbolism of the Cretan Labyrinth & the Minotaur that was said to lurk within.⁠ You can explore the myth in our current exhibition #LabyrinthAshmolean: ashmolean.org/exhibition/lab… 📷️ Attic red-figure cup, c. 500 BCE

There is much to learn of Minoan Crete & the role of women at #LabyrinthAshmolean. Women are prominent on frescoes/ objects in the Palace of Knossos. Some suggest Minoan Crete was a matriarchy; others that women’s importance was religious, as priestesses of a mother goddess. You?

This incredible ring dates back to 1450–1375 BCE. Bull-leaping is one of the most enduring images from the Aegean Bronze Age. It features on objects from the Palace of Knossos and could be linked with the passing down of the myth of the Minotaur. ⁠⁠#LabyrinthAshmolean
