It has the head of a human, the body of a lion, often the wings of a bat and the tail of a scorpion which can shoot poisonous thorns. Its voice sounds like a mixture of pipes and trumpets. Only the lion is stronger than the Manticore. King Arthur supposedly confronted a

Manticore much later in History.

Artemis the Greek Goddess

Artemis was the moon Goddess. Her silver arrows brought plague and death, though she could heal as well. She protected young girls. Artemis was the Mistress of all Wild animals and enjoyed hunting in her chariot pulled by stags.

Artemis had 6+ siblings, though the most important were:

  • Apollo (Artemis's twin)
  • Athene
  • Hermes
  • Dionysus
  • Herakles (Hercules)

Arethusa

Arethusa was one of the nymphs (nature spirit) who served Artemis, the Goddess of the hunt. She was beautiful, but cared nothing for her beauty; all her joy was in hunting with bow and arrow and roaming the woods and hills and rocky crags of Elis and Arcadia. One burning hot day Arethusa, found herself alone on the bank beside the river Alpheus, where willow trees overhung the water. The cool water, dark with shade, seemed to invite her so she went for a swim. The river god Alpheus saw her and fell in love with Arethusa, who was in the care of Artemis. Arethusa fled to Ortygia to get away from Alpheus, and Artemis changed her into a spring. Alpheus, however, made his way beneath the sea and united his waters with those of the spring to capture her. But Arethusa was quick and had Artemis as her protector, eventually reaching Sicily where she remained.

In an earlier form of the legend, it was Artemis, not Arethusa, who was the object of the river god’s affections and who escaped by smearing her face with mire, so that he failed to recognize her. The story probably originated from the fact that Artemis Alpheiaia was worshiped in both Elis and Ortygia and also that the Alpheus river in its upper part runs underground.
