The Pegasus Story in Sixty Seconds
If the quiz questions sent you here looking for a refresher, this is the whole legend in brief. Pegasus, the winged horse of Greek mythology, was born from the blood of Medusa at the moment Perseus defeated her, springing into the world fully grown alongside his brother Chrysaor. Wherever his hoof struck the earth, a spring of inspiration burst forth; the most famous, the Hippocrene on Mount Helicon, was sacred to the Muses, which is why poets have claimed Pegasus ever since.
The hero Bellerophon tamed Pegasus with a golden bridle given by the goddess Athena, and together they defeated the fire-breathing Chimera. Their partnership ended in a warning: Bellerophon, swollen with pride, tried to fly Pegasus to Mount Olympus itself, and Zeus sent a single gadfly to sting the horse and throw him back to earth. Pegasus alone was welcomed among the gods and carried Zeus’s thunderbolts, and he still flies today as a constellation in the northern sky.
Sharpen Up and Retake
Most missed questions in this quiz concern those three beats: the birth from Medusa, the partnership with Bellerophon, and the constellation. You will find the longer version, and the surprising answer to whether he counts as a unicorn, in Is Pegasus a Unicorn?.

I got 10/10
Awesome, well done! It’s very difficult to get 10/10 on this quiz.
Unfortunately the quiz will not load for myself. It’s such a shame because I’m a big fantasy fan and my 14 year old daughter is a big unicorn fan so we were looking forward to pitting our wits against each other.
We did however, take the opportunity to have a look at some of the other articles on your site. Your Unicorn dog article is absolutely wonderful. You feel sorry for Rae but absolutely love her at the same time.
If you can let us know any reason why the quiz will not load then please do so. We are looking forward to trying it out.
Hi Lawrence,
Sorry you couldn’t take the quiz. There were some problems, but now it should load normally again. So if you want to give it a try, I think it will be quite a challenge. 🙂
The unicorn dog Rae sure had a rough start of life. However, now she has a loving home. While she has only one ear in a funny place, she is able to hear normally. And she is a happy and playful puppy, so I think she has a happy future ahead of her.
Thank you for your comment!
I didn’t score very well on the pegasus quiz lol but it was a lot of fun. I wish I found your website earlier, the unicorn toilet paper would have been fantastic to have when potty training my girls. Can I still buy the unicorn toilet paper with the shortage with the Covid-19 pandemic going on? Thanks for a wonderful and fun website, I will bookmark for future references.
Hi Zach,
I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the Pegasus quiz!
I got 6/10! I found the quiz very difficult but I liked it and learned a lot.
Well done, congratulations! That’s a very good score, because as you said, this quiz actually is very difficult. 🐴
10 out of 10! 😃
That is not easy to do! It really is your spirit animal! Nicely done!
Information on the Pegasus is very elusive. Getting a perfect score is quite the feat. Well done!
