In Greek mythology, Pegasus is an immortal winged horse, one of the two children of Poseidon and Medusa. Hesiod says that Pegasusโ name originates in the Greek word for springs, pegae, since he was supposedly born near the springs of Ocean. But he was also associated with waters due to an extraordinary trait of his he had inherited from his father.
Pegasus was capable of creating water streams wherever heโd struck his hoof, just like Poseidon. At least two famous springs in Greece, both named Hippocrene (โHorse Springโ), were widely believed to have been issued forth by Pegasusโ hoof. The more famous one of the two was located on Mount Helicon, the sacred abode of the Muses; its waters, when drunk, enthused poets with inspiration and creativeness.
After Bellerophon tamed Pegasus with the help of Athena, they defeated the Chimaera together.
Hesiod documents Pegasusโ birth and the origin of his name in the early passages of his โTheogony.โ
