THE FIERCEST in Greek Mythology: The Griffin and the Scythian Gold Hoards | Sacred Guardian Hierarchy

Myths & Battles: Global History and Mythology by History and Mythology

Episode notes

In this massive episode, we establish the definitive terror hierarchy of Greek Mythology. We move past the popular imagery to rank the cosmos's true masters: the Sacred Beasts (like the Griffins, the Pegasus, and the Sphinx), the brutal Monsters (led by the Chimera), the Underworld Guardians (Cerberus, Orthrus, and the Hydra), and the terrifying Beasts that were born to destroy them.

Who commands the universe? Is it Zeus with his thunderbolt, or the deep, unavoidable force of the gods' divine vengeance? We analyze the feats, the wars (the War with the Arimaspians and the Gigantomachy), and the mystical weapons that decided who ruled and who was imprisoned for eternity.
