In
Greek mythology,
Chrysaor (,
gen.: Χρυσάορος;
English translation: "He who has a golden sword" (from χρυσός, "golden" and ἄορ, "sword")), the brother of the winged horse
Pegasus, was often depicted as a young man, the son of
Poseidon and
Medusa. Chrysaor and Pegasus were not born until
Perseus chopped off Medusa's head.
