Translation: A legendary creature from Greek mythology. Its name means "male goat."

In Homer's epic poem "The Iliad" it appears as a strange animal with the head of a lion, the body of a male goat, and the tail of a serpent. Hesiod's "Theogony" depicts it as having three heads: a lion, a female goat, and a serpent. Originally, a symbol of the Lycian volcanoes in Western Turkey, and is thought to have been an animalized sacred beast. In Greek mythology, she was the daughter of Typhon, a storm giant and Echidna, a demigod half-serpent monster, who tormented the people of Lycia by spitting fire from her mouth. She was vanquished by the hero Bellerophon, who rode a horse named Pegasus.

While in Lycia, the rampaging Chimera was slain by the might hero Bellerophon on his steed the Pegasus. To the Hittites, Chimera is a symbol representing the seasons, each animal part representing a different one. From its unique look any new animal species that is genetically crossbred is also called a Chimera.
