Answer: A labyrinth with no known exits is called a Daedalus.

Daedalus was a maze builder...He built the maze for King Minos of Crete to house the Minotaur. One of Daedalus's sons named Icarus tried to fly out with wings made with feather stuck on frame with wax, flew too close to the sun and the wings disintegrated.

Basic Greek Mythology dude.

Also, Theseus killed the Minotaur and escaped with Ariadne, so the Labyrinth had known exit.
 
(Excuse the poor spelling of Daedalus - got the meme from the unwashed masses on the inter webs)

I know who Daedelus is. I don’t believe the part about calling a labyrinth with no known exits a daedelus.
