Greek mythology was based on the daily struggles of the Greeks, the tale of Medusa was made to warn women that if they were ever raped or abused they were likely to be the victims of retribution instead of the perpetrators, it like the tale of red riding hood, red riding hood is a tale to warn women that if they went to the woods by themselves then a “wolf” may appear, meaning a man, the tales of mythology are all just horror tales

this is the most human version of Medusa i've even seen, in this story she not is a monster, instead is a victim of unjust circunstances, and the loneliness, but is enough strong to live a life by herself, is very tough but is a necessary to survive, although enduring a painful existence, her relationship with her snakes is like with different persons or a family being more precise, despite those beings are part of her, really is a very beautiful story but also a very sad one , this is a unforgettable tale of the humanity within the ones are look different on the outside.

The so called 'heroes' far too much degree doesn't know the meaning of "objective viewpoint".

I would have shut down her temples and destroyed her statues all the Greek / Roman gods and goddesses were experts in stupidness the truth is they were just powerless works of art they had real no power they were just images nothing more just like all the other ancient and modern cultures with gods and goddesses beautiful works of art nothing more and I mean no offense any Hindus out there if anyone wants to believe that those beautiful artworks have power that's their choice but I know for a fact in my heart that they're just beautiful images of artwork nothing more oh and by the way the so-called hero that killed Medusa is nothing more than a murderer I don't blame her for hating people after what they did to her

It can speak to anyone who has been bullied or abused, or maybe regrets those who have been.

no, medusa served on the side of Athena, (one of the virgin gods) so medusa promised to be a virgin forever, all the gods adored her and loved medusa because she was so beautiful. medusa ignored them until Poseidon showed feelings, medusa loved Poseidon as well, so they had an affair, when Athena found out she was enraged. she then cursed Athena by turning her hair into serphants and gave her a face so hideous that anyone to look her in the eyes would turn to stone. Yes, it was a little unfair. But it was also her fault, the video isn't accurate- probably just a little "what if" situation

Medusa is one of my favorite characters in Mythology, and my family asks me ”why, like she was a monster who killed people” She never wanted to, the gods were unfair to her, and she didn't know how to control her power. It's not her fault that she's this way. So many people attacked her for the way she looked cause they saw her as a threat, but in all, they were the threat to her. They didn't like how she looked nor did they understand her. If only they had seen that she wasn't any harm to people, then perhaps her fate could have turned out differently. I'm so sorry this was long.

Actually, from what I know according to Greek Mythology, Medusa wasn’t born this way. If I remember correctly, the reason she ended up like she did was due to a huge misunderstanding on the gods’ parts. When Medusa was still a normal woman, she had wanted to become a priestess of the goddess Athena, the Greek god of strategic war - and she did. She went on to become one of the most dutiful priestesses to Athena there was. However, she had also grown to become exceptionally beautiful. Athena soon grew angry, because men had started visiting her temple to hear Medusa preach, not for their love of Athena but to be an audience to her beauty and exceptional voice. However, what was the straw that broke the camel’s back was when Poseidon had too grown an interest in the young woman - but for more... personal, reasons. Now you see, Athena was one of the Greek goddesses who had sworn off men, which meant they never were married nor ever procreated with them. In order to become a priestess of Athena, you had to follow the goddess’s example and also swear off men, which Medusa did. I’m not sure about before she became a priestess, but I know that she never mingled with any man during her time of being a priestess. Poseidon, however, messed all of that up though. He had also become mesmerized by the Medusa’s beauty, and like Greek gods often did, he ascended the earth to, uh, “have some fun” with Medusa. However, as I mentioned, Medusa was loyal to her Goddess, and ran away from Poseidon when he approached her. In fact, I think she even threw a clay pot at him. A hot pursuit entailed, and I believe Poseidon cornered her into Athena’s temple, where Medusa often preached. There, he had his way with her. This was obviously a huge insult to Athena, as not only did one of priestesses break their oath (to stay away from men), but they broke it *within her own temple*. She was outraged, and unleashed her anger upon poor Medusa - turning her into a monster (I think she was mad at Poseidon too - and that this became one of the versions reasons she hated Poseidon in the myths - but she couldn’t take it out on him as he was a god. Not sure tho.). So, Medusa became the beast she was - snakes for hair, with the curse of turning people into stone should they look her in the eye, blah blah blah. People hated her, and she ran away. (Things after this become a bit murky, sorry if they’re incorrect-) She found a ruined building, where she made her hideout. Many went there to try and kill her, but never succeeded. One day, exploring the grounds of the ruined building, she came across the head of a statue - the head of Athena. The ruined building was one of Athena’s temples, broken down and forgotten. Medusa transformed the place, caring for it like she did the old temple she worked at, worshipping Athena regularly. Athen saw this, and realized her mistake, and saw Medusa for the honest worshipper she was. Even after what she had made Medusa, the girl continued to worship her. Although, Medusa didn’t live forever. One fateful day, Perseus (a son of Poseidon, I think) came with an army and killed her brutally. To honor the death of the loyal priestess, Athena immortalized Medusa and her story upon her own shield - Medusa’s head being the centerpiece. The whole story is why Medusa is honestly one of the most interesting characters in the mythology there is. Sorry it came out so long hskdj

This is meant to be more of a "What if that story everyone knows of Medusa was a lie, and Perseus was no hero, just some jackass who tried to kill a scared little girl who couldn't control her powers", I believe.

Theres one thing that MANY people misinterpret in the story of Medusa: Athena did not curse Medusa because she blamed her for being a rape victim; the curse was to protect her, that way no one could ever hurt her again. Athena is the Goddess of war and wisdom. She knew the only way to protect a woman so beautiful, was to make her a weapon so that no one COULD touch her.

vurette Depends in which version you read. Some explicitly say Athena cursed her out of anger for having sex in her temple, punishing her beauty with extreme hideousness. And as the Greek gods aren't exactly known for their good nature, it is just more commonly accepted that Athena was being a careless bitch about the situation. Of course, that's not every version and it can be interpreted the way you said. Still, even if she was doing it to protect Medusa, she still punished her with a life of solitude. Yet another blunder for the Greek gods.

@legendthelegend5780 4 жыл бұрын

You can’t really say for sure, most likely many different versions exist. But from what I have read, and learned from classes, the main repeated story is one where Medusa was found doing stuff in Athena’s temple. This was seen as extreme disrespect and was greatly punished. So it’s not really misinterpreted exactly, it’s just different versions of the myth.

The real story is that Athena cursed Medusa sense she was in love with Poseidon. One day a man named perseus wanted to kill Medusa for no reason and decided to seek advice from Athena. Athena decided to tell perseus how to kill Medusa. Perseus chopped off Medusa's head and out came pegasus the horse. If Athena tried to protect Medusa,then why would she tell him how to kill Medusa so Athena was jealous.

More legit story suggest she had been a r*** victim at the hands of Poseidon (Poseidon is so evil, he makes Satan look like Abe Lincoln) and was punished for it by Athena. Not to mention, Perseus was just a glorified Hitman and killed Medusa in her sleep while she was pregnant. So yeah, good to know Greek mythology didn't really catch on.

Sure, he got stuck with the Underworld, but he was actually quite passive, didn't care much for anything going on outside his domain, and only became wrathful whenever someone tried to cheat death somehow. From my knowledge, he never raped anyone...although he did kidnap Persephone to have her as his wife, so he certainly isn't perfect, either. Disney really did him dirty.

The thing about the Poseidon rape story is that it is actually the LEAST legit version of the Medusa origin. It was written by the Roman Ovid in his Metamorphosis, and Ovid had a bit of an agenda. Every version of every myth he told made the gods as irrational, unsympathetic and unfair as possible. Granted, most of the Greek gods weren't particularly kind or empathetic to begin with, but Ovid turned that up to eleven. This seems to be a reaction to the fact that he was exiled by Augustus, and thus he was projecting a bit. The older versions of the myth paint the Gorgons (Medusa and her sisters, Euryale and Stheno) as the daughters of Echidna, mother of monsters, and thus they always were monsters. Not entirely unsympathetic, though, as they were simply born that way. Also, Medusa's sisters were quite broken up by her death.

She got the chance and cursed her and made her hair turn into venomus snakes and also made sure she would be forever alone by giving her the eyes, Medusa was thrown out of the realm, and she was later killed by so called Prince, However her head was always used for justice, in wars to make enemies stone.

hey, this is just for if you like Greek Mythology, but this is not how Medusa became Medusa. She was raped in Athena's temple and the other Gods thought she had to be punished by Athena, so Athena was peerpessured by them to do something. So Atena gave her 2 options, 1 die, 2 lose her beauty, but she would be able to protect herself. Medusa chose for the second option and fled to Poseidon's seas where she birthed 2 children from her rapist. I think it was Pegasus and another. I'm not entirely sure. but then she was beheaded by a demi-god (don't remember him either 😅) and he used her head and children to fight others later in his story. Which is honestly awful. But Greek women actually saw her a hero since she stayed strong even after she was raped, but the men saw her as a monster and foolish for giving up her beauty. So she wasn't actually born this way and her story is even sadder. Tho if Disney would make a movie of her story it would probably be as bad as Hercules

@@maxime9158 Part of that is accurate, and part of it is muddled. According to mythology, Medusa was one of three daughters born of the titans Ceto and Phorcys. She was by far the most beautiful, but a virgin priestess. Here is where it gets messy... Some mythology states that she had an affair, some says Poseidon raped her. Either way, Athena, who's temple it was that Medusa was in at the time, cursed her as punishment for the offense. Her sons, Pegasus and Chrysaor were born of her blood when it hit the sea spray. There are two tales to how that came to pass. Once when Poseidon was courting her, and the other says after she was beheaded. She was seen as a monster, but yet respected as an image of womanhood. It is interesting to see interpretations of mythology. To me, Ancient Greek mythology has always been my favorite.
