Who Created the Sirens

Traditionally, the Sirens were daughters of the river god Achelous and a Muse; it depends on the source which one, but it was undoubtedly one of these three: Terpsichore, Melpomene, or Calliope.

How are Sirens born?

In some myths, they were created to be the playmates of young Persephone (daughter of Zeus, Goddess of Springtime), but were created into monsters by her mother Demeter after Hades abducted Persephone.

Do sirens exist?

Just like their mermaid counterparts, sirens have never been proven to exist as there are no fossil records or even clear accounts of their existence. They are just creatures of myths and legends born from the imagination of one man.
