Perseus



Acording to Greek mythology Perseus was the hero who killed Medusa. Before that many warriors had tried to kill Medusa, but they all failed and were turned into stone. (TV: Eye of the Gorgon) He had found the three Gorgons sleeping in a cave. He only watched them through the reflection in his mirror-like shield and was able to cut off Medusa's head without turning into stone. He later gave the head to Polydectes as a wedding gift, who was turned into stone as soon as he set eyes on Medusa's head. (PROSE: Eye of the Gorgon)
