Definition: based on a pattern first documented on a clay tablet from Pylos, Greece (circa 1200 BCE) and also found on Cretan Coins of 400 to 500 BCE, these labyrinths are easily constructed using a seed pattern.

A maze can have more than one entrance and numerous choices along the way. The walls are usually high so as to block one from seeing the way out. It is constructed to be a left-brain puzzle.

These labyrinths usually divide up into four quadrants. Sacred geometry is deemed essential in the construction of some of these labyrinths. Older examples of these labyrinths are usually found on the floors of European churches and cathedrals. They are also found as turf labyrinths in England.
