Harpy
A harpy is a winged creature in the Greco-Roman mythologies, especially in works attributed to Homer.
According to a story, two members of the Argonauts visited the island of Kephallonia to pray at a local temenos dedicated to the god Zeus for strength to battle the harpies.[1]
Trivia
- Despite similar descriptions, the harpies and the sirens of Greek mythology are two different, distinct species of creatures.
- The term 'harpy' has come to denote a 'nasty, quarrelsome woman'.
