(Greek: Μέδουσα (Médousa)

In the Greek mythology, Medusa was a

monster, the daughter of Phorcys and Ceto.

Poseidon fell in love with her. And seduced her

in Athenea’s temple. To punish Medusa,

Athenea turned her into a monster with snakes

as hair. If someone looked at her eyes s/he turned into a stone.

The mythology says that she was beheaded by the son of Zeus,Perseos

when she was pregnant .

Perseus gave the Gorgona’s head to

Atenea who puts in her shild for an arm,

becaus she conserves her terrible efects.

art

Greek statues

Greek sculptors made figures of people and gods. Statues were set up outdoors in towns and inside tamples. A statue lasts much longer than a painting, especially when made of a hard stone, such as marble. There were also statues made of wood and bronze (a kind of metal).

pottety

The Greeks made pots from clay. They made small pottery bowls and cups for drinking, middle-sized pots for carrying and cooking, elegant vases for decoration, and large jars for storing wine and foods. Potters in the city states of corinth and athens made beautiful pottery. They used a watery clay mixture to make figures or decoration on the clay before it was hard. When the pot was baked in akiln, the areas painted with the clay mixture turned black. Unpainted areas turned red-brown.

Black animal figures are typical of Corinthian pottery. Greek potters also made pottery decorated with red figures on a black background.

Art is very important to the Greeks

Thetre

Greek theatre

Most Greek cities had a theatre. It was in the open air, and was usually a bowl-shaped arena on a hillside. Some theatres were very big, with room for more than 15,000 people in the audience.

All the actors were men or boys. Dancers and singers, called the chorus, performed on a flat area called the orchestra. Over time, solo actors also took part, and a raised stage became part of the theatre. The actors changed costumes in a hut called the "skene". Painting the walls of the hut made the first scenery.

The plays were comedies(funny, often poking fun at rulers)

or tragedies(sad and serious, with a lesson about right and wrong).
