Although Theseus is most famous for defeating the Minotaur, here you can see him subduing another mighty bull, the Bull of Marathon. He captured the bull and brought it back to Athens where he offered it up in sacrifice. In some versions of the myth, this same bull was the father of the Minotaur, the half-man half-bull monster which Theseus would also defeat with the help of Ariadne.
