Mermaid

Mermaids have captivated people for centuries due to their unusual allure. It is possible to trace the origins of myths about half-human, half-fish beings back to Babylon. Merpeople also appear in Syrian, Polynesian, and Ancient Greek mythology. While some cultures depicted mermaids as glamorous and romantic (in Irish mythology, mermaids can transform into human form and marry humans), others described them as evil and capable of hastening and causing disaster.

Minotaur

According to Greek mythology, the Minotaur was the son of the Goddess of Crete and a mighty bull who came from the sea. The Minotaur was a mythical creature with a human body and a bull’s head and tail. King Minos was so shocked by this development that he constructed a complex maze designed to keep him imprisoned.
