Yes, according to Greek mythology, Medusa had children.
Medusa, the only mortal Gorgon, famously had snakes for hair and a gaze that could turn living things to stone. While she may be best known for her monstrous appearance and tragic fate at the hands of Perseus, she also played a part in creating new life, albeit in a rather unusual way.
From the blood that sprang forth when Perseus beheaded Medusa emerged two offspring fathered by Poseidon:
- Pegasus: The winged horse, a symbol of inspiration and poetry.
- Chrysaor: A giant warrior, whose name means "golden sword."
Therefore, the answer is unequivocally yes, Medusa had children - specifically, Pegasus and Chrysaor.
