Medusa (Greek Μέδουσα Medousa, Lat. Medusa) - In Greek mythology, was the youngest of the three Gorgon and the most dangerous (often attributed to the mere name of the Gorgon Medusa). Had snakes instead of hair, and her eyes would turn living beings into stone. The only cure for it was tears of a unicorn.Jellyfish reportedly was so beautiful that fell in love with her and seduced by Poseidon in the temple of Athena.The myth of Medusa has evolved. Initially Medusa was one of the deities przedolimpijskich, a monster. In later versions, it began to be considered a victim of revenge of the goddess Athena. Medusa was supposed to be a beautiful girl who dared to compete with the goddess of beauty. So Athena turned Medusa (and her sister, Steno and euryale) in winged horribly ugly monsters with snakes instead of hair and claws at hand.Medusa was killed by Perseus, who cut off her head, and the blood from the cut neck Gorgon born Pegasus and Chrysaor. Athena put her head on egidzie, shield of Zeus.
