Symbol of Greek mythology

In Greek mythology, the chimera is a fantastical creature that embodies the fearsome qualities of various animals. The chimera's hybrid nature makes it a symbol of the unnatural, the discordant blending of different species into one entity, defying the natural order. In literature and art, it is often used to represent wild imagination and chaos, serving as a metaphor for the unpredictable and uncontrollable forces in the world.
