Estia Creations Medusa Miniature Mask - Ancient Greece - Gorgon Medousa

In Greek mythology Medusa ("guardian, protectress") was a monster, a Gorgon, generally described as having the face of a hideous human female with living venomous snakes in place of hair. Gazing directly upon her would turn onlookers to stone.
