Reply:tough question... i love the story of medusa... and yes Medea too
Reply:Heracles and his 12 labours. Excellent stuff there. Heracles battled all the gangsta monsters and met up with some cool heroes. His myths actually extend into other myths, like Jason and the Argo, the 7 Against Thebes, et cetera.
Reply:Sisyphus.





I feel bad for the guy, it is no fun pushing rocks.

Reply:Jason and the Argonaut, hits it top gear two pages into the story and keeps going at that pace all the way through the story. One of the best story's of all time.
Reply:Greek? I think either the story of Achilles (basically the Iliad). Or the story of Seven Against Thebes, especially the part about Tydeus and Melanippus and their personal fight in amongst the story of the war itself.





But my favorite Greco-Roman mythology story is the Aeneid. The story of how Aeneas led the remnant of Troy after the Greeks destroyed it, all the way to western Italy and overpowered the Italian and Latin tribes located there. The rest of story shows that one day a descendant of Aeneas (Julius Caesar) will bring Rome to glory as the foremost empire on Earth.

Reply:I find the story of "Medusa" very interesting. Medusa was a young girl who one day during her visit to the Goddess Athena's temple had sex with a church boy and then while they were "making out", Medusa was changed in to an ugly fearful creature (her hair become snakes) because Goddess Athena becomes very angry at the vulgar manner of this young girl espacially on her temple....hahahahha...what a funny thing to happen to a girl





But then later on, the symbol of "Medusa's head" became the standard symbol of Roman army shields where Medusa supposedly protect the soldiers from enemies





Go Medusa..
