Medusa was the mortal daughter of Phorcys, the embodyment of the dangers of the sea and the son of Pontus and Gaia, and Keto, the daughter of... Pontus and Gaia, and whose name is the root of the word "Cetacian", which is the family of whales and dolphins.

Beyond that it gets wierder. Pontus was also the son of Gaia, born without father. Gaia herself was born from Khaos, also without aid of a father.

Medusa was turned into a monster after Athena found her consorting with Neptune inside one of her temples. After being made into a monster, she was unable to bear the children of Neptune that she carried: Pegasus, the winged horse, and Chrysaor, the golden giant.
