10K Yellow Gold Medusa Medallion Pendant.

Medusa is a figure from Greek mythology, known as one of the three Gorgons. She was originally a beautiful woman but was transformed into a monster with snakes for hair by the goddess Athena. Anyone who looked directly at her would be turned to stone. Medusa was eventually slain by the hero Perseus, who used her severed head as a weapon before giving it to Athena. Medusa is often seen as a symbol of danger and transformation.
