Medusa

Yes, anyone could be turned to stone but in many tales like in clash of the Titian's the modern version Medusa only turned men to stone because Athena , god of wisdom and war, only wanted her to be unattractive to men not women.

Yes, Medusa wears makeup, and lots of it. She was gorgeous! She had to be to make men look at her. Of course, when they did they turned to stone. I've done medusa for years. One thing I stumbled across when making my hair green with food color, was that doing it in the bathtub turned my whole body green. Not a problem since medusa's skin was green. No worries, the dye washes out of your hair with one or two washes, and comes off your skin with a louffa. If for some reason, it doesn't come out of your hair, liquid Tide will definitely take it out. If your hair is processed, you might want to put on a showercap and just dye your skin. (Additional hint: If you do a temprary hair rinse and you don't like it, Tide will take that out as well. Always wash your hair with regular shampoo after you use Tide.) Just have fun with your hair and makeup.

Nothing happens, because you cannot give a unicorn Medusa's Blood on howrse.

Medusa, originally a beautiful young woman whose crowning glory was her magnificent long hair, was desired and courted by many suitors. Yet before she could be betrothed to a husband, Poseidon (Neptune) found her worshipping in the temple of Athena (Minerva) and ravished her. Athena was outraged at her sacred temple being violated, and punished Medusa by turning her beautiful tresses into snakes and giving her the destructive power to turn anyone who looked directly at her into stone

It was Perseus who beheaded Medusa.

Like most of Greek mythology, the dates are not stated. Medusa was decapitated by the hero Perseus.

It was actually a goddess- Athena, the goddess of wisdom. She caught Medusa and Poseidon together in her temple.

Medusa was originally mortal. She was just so exceptionally beautiful that men and gods were attracted to her, and specifically Poseidon. Medusa, being a priestess, was praying in Athena's temple when Poseidon raped her. Athena, who was in love with Poseidon at the time, was furious and outraged , so she had put the Gorgon curse on Medusa. So this way if she ever looked into the eyes of her lover he would turn to stone. This gave her the stare of the Gorgon on her aegis turns their minds figuratively to stone, a kind of mental paralysis sets in. Their thinking becomes calcified and rigid, robbed of the flexibility to see clearly. In this intellectual stupor. This is also how she got the reptilian hair. As a side note it was also said that Medusa originally had dreadlocks when she was mortal.

No. Artemis does not appear in the myth about Medusa.

Because anything she looks at turns to stone. This was the punishmant Athena gave her.

Athena turned Medusa into a monster with snakes for hair. Whenever someone looked at Medusa after she was cursed, they would be turned to stone. Athena did this to Medusa because Medusa was one of Poseidon's lovers and they one day met in Athena's temple.

Stheno, Euryale, and Medusa were the three Gorgon sisters in Greek mythology. Medusa was famously decapitated by the hero Perseus.

Hideous hair and very ugly

Medusa and her two sisters were daughters of Phorcys and Ceto.

She never existed; Medusa is a myth.

Medusa was probably pretty jaded, since she started out as a venerated fertility/earth/mother goddess, but with the invasion of the patriarchal Dorians in roughly the 13th century BC, many of these earth goddess cults--which may have been prominent in societies in which women had more importance--were replaced with rites pertaining to either gods or to orderly, obedient, virginal goddesses like Athena and Artemis. So Medusa probably doesn't believe in those deities, since they took her place, and while she (as a former goddess) might not be a jaded atheist, she likely comes close.

My theroy is that Medusa's full name is Medusa Gorgon..But of course she might have many other names..She is on of the three GORGON sisters.

Athena didn't kill Medusa. Perseus is the hero who did that. Athena only turned Meduas into a monster.

Yes, and they're coming to get you...

The hero Perseus did.

Medusa can turn people who meet her eyes into stone.
