Monster_ is derived from the Latin noun monstrum, __ivine portent,_ itself formed on the root of the verb monere, __o warn._ It came to refer to living things of anomalous shape or structure, or to fabulous creatures like the sphinx who were composed of strikingly incongruous parts, because the ancients considered the appearance of such beings to be a sign of some impending supernatural event. Monsters, like angels, functioned as messengers and heralds of the extraordinary. They served to announce impending revelation, saying, in effect, __ay attention; something of profound importance is happening.
