One of the most famous creatures from Greek mythology isn’t a human, demi-god, or god, but rather, a horse. However, this isn’t just any old horse. The creature known as Pegasus was a brilliant, white stallion with powerful wings that was born from the blood of the gorgon known as Medusa.

There are two origin stories within Greek mythology that explain the appearance of Pegasus. One of these, from Archaic Greek mythology, suggests that Pegasus was the offspring of Medusa, who in these stories was actually a mare. Later myths within Archaic Greek mythology position Pegasus as being foaled from the blood of Medusa as she was decapitated by Perseus. On the other hand, Classical Greek mythology suggests that the Olympian god known as Poseidon was the father of Pegasus.
