The term and the flag were created by Tumblr user Queer-Buccaneers on December 26, 2017.<ref>[https://queer-buccaneers.tumblr.com/post/168973295337/medusan Tumblr post coining medusan.]</ref>
The flag's meanings are as follows:
* Purple represents alterhumanity. The bright purple was chosen to reference ultraviolet- a color beyond human perception- to represent the unseen nature of alterhumanity, an identity beyond normal human boundaries.
* Green represents nonhuman creatures, as many nonhuman creatures at portrayed as being green, such as dragons, zombies, and aliens. Green also references the snakes in Medusa’s hair.
* Salmon represents love. It is an off-color from both pink and red, traditional love colors, to represent the uniqueness of medusan attraction and how it differs from human attraction to monsters.
The triskelion is a symbol that has been used as a symbol for Medusa.<ref>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triskelion#Classical_Antiquity Wikipedia entry on the triskelion in classic antiquity.]</ref>
