Sphinx.

Sphinx is a mythical creature. Her parents were Typhon and Chimera. She had a human head, an eagle's wings, a bull's tail, as well as a torso and paws of lion.

This creature exists in other mythologies, too. Sphinx is a mythological hybrid. Lernaean Hydra is Sphinx's relative.

There are many paintings and statues of Sphinx. In Ancient Greece this creature was a character of legend about Oedipus.
