Mermaids Designer TOOB

History:

Mermaids or similar creatures appear in the legends of numerous cultures, and their exact origin is unclear. Modern depictions in the West often equate them with the Sirens of Greek Mythology, who would lure sailors to the depths with their irresistible songs. Difficult as it may be to believe, early mermaid “sightings” may have actually been manatees that sailors mistook for the half-fish, half-woman mythical creatures.
