Medusa, a figure from Greek mythology, was not actively worshipped in the same way as the major gods of ancient Greece. However, she was revered in certain cult practices and was associated with protective symbolism, particularly in the form of the Gorgoneion, an amulet featuring her image that was believed to ward off evil. Medusa's origins can be traced back to the archaic period, but references to her in religious contexts appear more prominently in the 6th century BCE, particularly in art and architecture.
