The daughter of Phorcys and Ceto, Medusa was one of the three gorgon sister along with Euryale and Stheno, with hair made of snakes and eyes that could turn people in to stone. In the later version of the myth, she was a beautiful maid raped by Poseidon in the temple of Athena, who would then transform her into a monster. She was beheaded by the hero Perseus, and from her dead body, the winged horse Pegasus and the giant Chrysaor.
