What are sirens in mythology?
Sirens are creatures from Greek mythology that are best known for their role in Homer’s Odyssey. In the story, the sirens lure sailors to their island with their singing voices and then eat them.
The sirens were originally described as having the bodies of birds and the heads of women. Over time, they have been portrayed in a variety of ways including as mermaids or beautiful women with wings.
Despite their dangerous reputation, sirens have been used as symbols of beauty and temptation throughout history. In more recent times, they have appeared in popular culture, such as in the TV show Supernatural and the Pirates of the Caribbean movies.
