Yes, a more proper question would've been: Does anybody know if any of the extant labyrinths in classical times are mazes or labyrinths in the mathematical sense?
I've only ever heard of one being discovered. On Crete wasn't it? But don't remember what it was like. I don't think ancient legends describe mazes or labyrinths in any detail do they? And how many are there anyway, apart from the minotaur story?
