I see people in this comment section getting confused between many versions of Medusa The earlier versions of Medusa were that she was born a monster. The later version was Ovid’s version (hes roman, so this is actually a roman account of roman mythology, not greek mythology) This was where Medusa was SA’d by Poseidon. Keep in mind, Ovid is roman and also hated authority because of personal reasons. He may be unreliable due to this as a result. Also to clear up another misconception, Roman gods are not greek gods renamed, roman people had their own traditions and their gods were different. I like placing sources (evidence is sexy) on my comments so here it is Evidence Medusa was born a monster : Pseudo-Hyginus, Preface (trans. Grant) (Roman mythographer C2nd A.D.) : "From Gorgon and Ceto [were born] : Sthenno, Euryale, Medusa." Pseudo-Apollodorus, Bibliotheca 1. 10 (trans. Aldrich) (Greek mythographer C2nd A.D.) : "Phorkys (Phorcys) and Keto (Ceto) had [offspring] the Phorkides (Phorcides) and the Gorgones (Gorgons)." (Parentage of greek monsters/dieties always differ depending on versions so yeah, its why different parents are listed here.) Ovid’s version : Ovid, Metamorphoses 4. 770 ff (trans. Melville) (Roman epic C1st B.C. to C1st A.D.) : "[Medousa (Medusa)] was violated in Minerva's [Athena's] shrine by the Lord of the Sea (Rector Pelagi) [Poseidon]. Jove's [Zeus'] daughter turned away and covered with her shield her virgin's eyes. And then for fitting punishment transformed the Gorgo's lovely hair to loathsome snakes."
@@alyssar272 Syncretism. The romans pretended or believed the greeks were worshipping their gods, when really they just had a pantheon of a similar origin to the Romans'.
@@videogollumer yes. In the Typhoes story, the gods run to Egypt and take animals form there before they came back, and to the greeks the egyptians gods where just the greek ones. They also believed that Trojans, syrians and persians also worshiped the same gods, but with difference names. For example persians where know to worship Ahura Mazda the lord of fire, and they also lived in the east, so just say they worship Helius or are his descendants. King Aeetes was the son of Helius and he lived in the east, Medea his daugher also teached Persians magic. Phaetom the guy that created the Saara Desert was also Helius son and he was a Syrian. The Egyptians descended of Zeus (trough Epaphus son of Io), and Poseidon (trough some daughters of said Epaphus).
My favorite part is where the storyteller belatedly realizes that, after giving the hero his "accomplish the quest and get the girl" bit, he still needs to shoehorn in a "oh, right, he needs to kill his pappy, b/c prophecy" subplot at the very end.

I like how Greeks are about Zeus' kids while Poseidon stares at the wall, creating stuff like gifts and troubles, while holding the record for the most demigods.
This was a great video, wanna clarify that first. Okay so, the story of Medusa is actually a lot more fucked up. So one of the more common story for this was essentially, Poseidon wanted to fuck Medusa, Medusa said no, Poseidon went after her and tried to kidnap her, Medusa ran to Athena for help. Athena said no, Poseidon RAPED Medusa, Athena didn't like that Medusa had sex and turned Medusa into the snake hair lady. Medusa was the freaking victim in the whole story.

There's different versions of the story. Earlier ones do state that Medusa consensually hooked up with Poseidon and later stories see her as a victim.
