Best Answer

Why yes, there was a 'maze' in Greek mythology legends. It was called the 'Labyrinth'.

The Labyrinth was made by Daedalus, an expert designer, with his talented son Icarus.

Daedalus was ordered to create the labyrinth by King Minos of Crete. Minos needed somewhere to keep the monster called the Minotaur.

Often, King Minor would send law breakers into the labyrinth as a punishment, knowing the minotaur would completely destroy them!

Eventually, Thesues managed to kill minotaur, with the useful navigation technique of using a piece of string.
