A Siren (Greek (singular): Σειρήν Seirēn; Greek (plural): Σειρῆνες Seirēnes) was a dangerous creature from Greek mythology that is portrayed as a femme fatale. The Sirens would lure nearby sailors with their enchanting music and voices in order to shipwreck on the rocky coast of the island. Roman poets placed them on some small islands called Sirenum scopuli.
