History
Labrys is, according to Plutarch, Minoan word for the double headed axe called in Greek πέλεκυς (pélekus). In ancient Crete, the double axe was an important sacred symbol of the Minoan religion. In Crete it never accompanies male gods, but always female goddesses. It seems that it associated with the worship of Mother Earth or Great Goddess.
