The youngest and only mortal of the three gorgon sisters, killed by Perseus.
It will be suggested here that the myth of Perseus, involving the decapitation of Medusa, is a narrative version of ritual.
But their depictions of Perseus are remarkably different and demonstrate the ambiguity of Medusa that was seeping into Victorian iconography. In later, Roman versions of the myth, for example Ovid's Metamorphoses, Perseus slays the sea monster with his sword instead of using Medusa’s head to petrify the monster.
