Centaur - These beings are half men and half horse. They live in the mountains and forests and their food is raw meat. They like wine very much and follow Dionysus, the god of wine. Some of them are savage and violent but others are hospitable and good hearted., Medusa - This creature was once a beautiful woman. Now, she looks horrible and her hair is a mass of serpents. The serpents have huge heads, bronze hands and golden wings. Anyone who meets and looks at this hideous and unfriendly creature turns to stone immediately from a horrible fear. Poseidon is the only immortal who was not afraid of this disgusting creature and had a child with her., Minotaur - It is huge and has the head of a bull and the body of a man. Its house is the labyrinth. Every year the fierce creature eats seven boys and seven girls sent from Athens. Theseus manages to kill this vicious and insensitive beast with the help of Ariadne, King Minos' daughter., Sphinx - This wicked and ugly monster has the face of a woman, the chest, feet and tail of a lion; and wings of a bird. The cruel and cunning creature asks the passers-by this riddle: "What is it that has four feet in the morning, two at noon, and three at night?" If people don't know the answer, they die immediately. Only Oedipus manages to solve this riddle: Humans who crawl on four when they are babies, walk on their two feet when they grow up, and use a cane later when they become very old.,
