Polydectes ["polly"Â­dekÂ­teez] ordered the death of this figure, whose blood formed coral reefs when it fell into the sea. This sister of Stheno [sÂ­thehÂ­noh] and Euryale [yooÂ­reeÂ­ahÂ­lee] had her face pressed into Athena's Aegis [eeÂ­jiss] shield. (*) Perseus used another shield as a mirror to help avoid this woman's petrifying gaze. For 10 points, name this gorgon, who turned humans to stone with her terrifying face and snake hair.
