Creatures that are half man and half beast are found in the legends of nearly every culture. A great many of those in the Western world made their first appearance in stories and plays from ancient Greece, Mesopotamia, and Egypt. But, half-man, half-animal figures are probably older still: myths about sphinxes, centaurs, and minotaurs, told at the dinner table or in the amphitheaters, were undoubtedly passed down over generations

The strength of the half-man, half-beast archetype can be seen in the persistence of modern tales of werewolves, vampires, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and a host of other monster and horror characters. Irish author Bram Stoker (1847–1912) wrote “Dracula” in 1897, and more than a century later the image of the vampire has installed itself as part of the popular mythology.

Oddly enough, though, the closest we have for a general word containing the meaning of half-human, half-beast hybrid is “therianthrope,” which generally refers to a shapeshifter, someone who is entirely human for part of the time and entirely animal for the other part. Other words that are used in English and other languages are specific to the blends and often refer to the legendary creatures of the myths. Here are some of the mythical half-human, half-animal creatures from stories told in past ages.
