It is a creature from Greek mythology, known for having a very peculiar appearance: snakes on the head, instead of hair, bronze fangs, gold wings, body with scales and boar teeth.

Medusa is considered a monster with a petrifying look. It turns those who look directly at it into stone, so it is seen as a powerful creature. But she was not always like that.

History of Medusa

According to experts, Medusa was a beautiful woman, known for her beautiful golden hair. But when she was abused by Poseidon in the temple of Athena, she ended up being turned into a monster by the goddess.

From there, the woman gave way to a horrifying creature, who lived in a cave, away from everyone. The punishment, however, gave her the power to petrify everyone who looked at her, being a being feared by many people.

However, Medusa was later killed by Zeus’s son Perseus, who used the best tools to take Medusa’s head off. After her death, it was discovered that she was pregnant with Poseidon. Thus, from Medusa Pegasus, a winged horse, was born, as well as Crisaor, a golden giant.

It is worth noting that the history of Medusa serves as inspiration for many women, as they understand that she was a victim of abuse and still considered to be impure, thus becoming a feminist symbol. This is one of the reasons for it to be represented in fantasies.

Medusa is worshiped by people who associate it with strength and protection, to ward off evil spirits. In addition, he is the protagonist of statues, paintings, a basis for characters, in short. Many people treat her as the serpent goddess.
