Chrysomallos was a golden ram.
Biography[]
Hecate finally reunited with Chrysomallos
Created by the goddess Hecate to save the lives of children Phrixis and Helle, Chrysomallos was later sacrificed at Colchis and his Golden Fleece guarded by a giant serpent.[1]
Many years later, in 1941, Hecate returned Chrysomallos to life and Indiana Jones was present to witness the ram float up into Hecate's open arms.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
In Greek, Χρυσόμαλλος means "Golden-wooled" or "Golden-haired". The Greek name of the Golden Fleece is Χρυσόμαλλον Δέρας (Chrysomallon Deras).
