The Progeny are individually named [[Primeval Mind]], [[Imminent Mind]], and [[Eschaton Mind]], and they each bear a different head shape.

*The names of the three Sol Progeny | *The names of the three Sol Progeny - Primeval Mind, Imminent Mind, and Eschaton Mind - contain terms relating to past, present, and future respectively. Specifically, "Primeval" refers to the very beginning of time, "Imminent" means something about to happen very soon, and "Eschaton" refers to the theological "end of days". | ||
*The killcam labels all three Minotaurs as being part of the "Sol Progeny" faction, though individually they match the appearance of [[Sol Divisive]], [[Descendants]], and [[Precursors]]. | |||
*The [[Overmind Minotaur]] is labeled as being part of the Sol Progeny in the killcam, as is [[The Groundskeeper]]. | |||
**The [[Blighted Descendant]], a [[Taken]] [[Ultra]] added with [[The Taken King]], is also part of the Sol Progeny. | |||
* The | **Another variant, also named Sol Progeny, is found in the [[Taken War]] version of some [[Nightfall]] [[Strike]]s. | ||

*In the room where players spawn inside the Black Garden, another large Minotaur statue similar to the ones animated by the Black Heart can be observed overgrown with moss and vines. Whether this statue is affected by the destruction of the Heart is unclear, as the pathway back to it during [[The Undying Mind|the "Undying Mind"]] strike is no longer traversable. | *In the room where players spawn inside the Black Garden, another large Minotaur statue similar to the ones animated by the Black Heart can be observed overgrown with moss and vines.

* | *The projectiles fired from the Primeval Mind's Torch Hammer are akin to those of a [[Cyclops]]. | ||
*In [[Destiny 2]]'s first expansion, [[Curse of Osiris]], Statue versions of the Sol Progeny can be found in between simulations in [[The Infinite Forest]] but with a yellow texture rather then the grey and brown texture of the original statues. | |||
