"Athena's Aegis," by me, (#10 in my "Quest for the Gorgon Head" series)

PART 10: With justice served and his mother saved, Perseus returned his Adamantine blade to Hermes, and the helmet of invisibility and winged sandals to the nymphs, and of Medusa’s head he offered it to grey-eyed Athena who placed the head upon her “Aegis” (armored breastplate) as a sacred weapon. Later in life, Perseus returns to his original homeland, fulfilling the original prophecy by accidently killing his grandfather with an accidental discus throw. Perseus and andromeda go on to found the great kingdom of Mycenae.

The original Aegis armor was described as a goat hide with golden tassels wrapped over a shield used by Zeus in the war against the Titans. In an alternative account, in the Olympians war against the titans, Athena strips a giant monster, Pallas, of his skin and wears the skin as armor. In ancient Greek vase paintings we can see a metal corselet worn by Athena upon her torso, with Medusas head positioned abreast. In Homer’s Iliad, Apollo borrows the Aegis, and joining in the war, provokes terror upon the battlefield with it, as it was said to produce “…a sound as from myriad roaring dragons.” (Iliad, 4.17)

combing through the references about the Aegis was a bit tricky. Does anyone have anything to add about this sacred piece of armor? Did i miss anything?

Name Angelica Wood Birthday March 16 1960 Race: half Human and half Minotaur  Hates: being fed beef She's daughter of Albert Wood and Rose. She's the half sister of Belle Wood. Nick is her older twin brother. Like Ella she was born when Albert was still married to Belle Wood's Mother.  They were born in Greece. In a small village that was mostly Minotaurs. Her and her brother moved into the white house after her Mom died from an illness. Her and her brother became quite spoiled after Belle Wood and Ella moved out. One time when Angelica was 3 years old they had hamburgers for dinner Angelica asked her father what the meat was. Albert said beef. Angelica glared at her father and knocked over the table. "how could you feed me beef when you know I'm part minotaur.?". Then she ran away and slammed her bedroom door. The white house chef Renato made sure not to cook any beef so that didn't happen again. She had her brother were home schooled.  After Belle Wood became president he asked Angelica why she didn't become president. Angelica said " Because he doesn't want me to become president for some reason, he asked Nick though but he is having too much fun doing a travel blog".

Hestia

Hestia is the Greek goddess of the hearth, one of the original Twelve Olympians. Cronus’ and Rhea’s first-born child, she was pure and peaceful. However, since she always had to stay at home, tending the fireplace, Hestia is not involved in many myths. Consequently, at a later stage, she would be replaced in the Pantheon with the much wilder Dionysus.

Hestia’s name means “hearth” or “fireplace,” and her status shows how important the hearth was in the social and religious life of Ancient Greeks. Making and preserving fire was both essential and difficult for more primitive societies, which made the household fire a sacred element at a very early stage of history. In later days, Hestia became its embodiment.

Hi 🤗 Here is a Naiad. Nymphs from Greek mythology. They are like mermaids because they were both known to capture their lovers. I have always confused them with Nereids, sea nymphs where Naiads are freshwater nymphs 🧐

"The Birth of Pegasus and Chrysoar" (#7 in my "Quest for the Gorgon Head" series) Part7 : But Perseus was not turned to stone by Medusas gaze, for he used his bronze shield as a mirror. Before Medusa could rise and attack, Athena guided Perseus sword-hand, decapitating the monster. From the bloody neck stump of Medusa, from Poseidon’s seed, two bizarre children were born; Pegasus the winged horse, and a son, Chrysaor. Not far off, the Gorgon sisters awoke in fury. There was little time. Perseus secured Medusa’s head into his Kibis, and fled into the night upon his winged sandals, while the screeching gorgon sisters sought the killer in vain. Here we have another example of a strange, “higher birth” in Greek mythology. It brings to mind Athena’s birth, fully formed and armored, from Zeus’ cracked forehead.         Pegasus is an important figure in Greek mythology. In some versions of the Perseus myth Pegasus is ridden away, while in others, Perseus flees the gorgon upon his winged sandals.  Pegasus appears in another hero myth, being tamed and ridden by the hero Bellerophon to kill the fire breathing beast; Chimera. Later, Bellerophon attempted to ride Pegasus to Olympus, but Zues caused him to fall. Pegasus continued on to Olympus, joining the King of gods as his thunderbolt bearer, and receiving a constellation in the horses honor. Pegasus’ brother Chrysaor means “golden-blade.” Some variations tell of him as a giant, while others say he was a winged boar. Chrysoar went on to lay with an oceanid nymph to father a three bodied, four-winged Giant named Geryone. During Hercules quest to perform 12 tasks, his 10th task is to collect the cattle of Geryone. But… that’s a tale for another time.

Coming next...a certain sea serpent and princess in peril!

And the first view to the protagonist of the new project. Be careful, though. You don't want to look at her in the eyes. She has what we call... A petrifying stare. 👀🙈🐍 #medusa #gorgon #greekmythology #greekcreatures #greekmonsters (at Mount San Antonio College, Walnut) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5lMj8DAb68/?igshid=5zestsdfwkeb
