The Chimera, Pronounced (Kimaira) in Greek Mythology, was a monstrous fire-breathing female creature of Lycia in Asia Minor, composed of the parts of multiple animals: upon the body of a lioness with a tail that ended in a snake's head, the head of a goat arose on her back at the center of her spine. The Chimera was one of the offspring of Typhon and Echidna and a sibling of such monsters as Cerberus and the Hydra. The term chimera is used to describe any mythical animal with parts taken from various animals.
