Who used medieval gargoyles?
The word "Gargoyle" shares a common root with the word "Gargle"; which comes from "gargouille", an French word for "Throat". A carved creature that does not serve the purpose of a drain pipe is frequently referred to as a "Grotesque". A true gargoyle is a waterspout. The word "gargoyle" is also a derivative from the Latin word, "gurgulio", which had a double meaning, "throat", and the "gurgling" sound water makes as it passes through a gargoyle. In medieval architecture, the gargoyles, which had to be very numerous because of the many gutters which were carried on the tops of flying buttresses, and higher and lower walls, were often very decorative, consisting, as they did, of stone images of grotesque animals, and the like, or, in smaller buildings of iron or lead. Gargoyles can be traced back 4000 years to Egypt, Rome and Greece.

Gargoyle water spouts were even found at the ruins of Pompeii. The first grotesque figures came from Egypt.
