Maximillian Mayer suggested as early as 1892 [11] that labyrinthos might derive from labrys, a Lydian word for "double-bladed axe". [12] Arthur Evans, who excavated the Minoan palace of Knossos in Crete early in the 20th century, suggested that ruins inspired the story of the labyrinth, and since the double axe motif appears in the palace ruins, he asserted that labyrinth could be understood to mean "the house of the double axe". [13] The same symbol, however, was discovered in other palaces in Crete. [14] Nilsson observed that in Crete the double axe is not a weapon and always accompanies goddesses or women and not a male god. [15] Cut from beautiful wood with a natural finish, this Labyrinth Christmas ornament features art from the classic movie poster. If your tree is without Jareth, then it’s a little light on magic.
