Stheno and Euryale
Sisters of the Gorgon Medusa / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In Greek mythology, Stheno (/ˈsθiːnoʊ, ˈsθɛnoʊ/; Ancient Greek: Σθενώ, romanized: Sthenṓ, lit. 'forceful')[2] and Euryale (/jʊəˈraɪəli/ yuu-RY-ə-lee; Ancient Greek: Εὐρυάλη, romanized: Euryálē, lit. 'far-roaming')[3] were two of the three Gorgons, along with Medusa, sisters who were able to turn anyone who looked at them to stone.[4] When Perseus beheaded Medusa, the two Gorgons pursued him but were unable to catch him.
