	Charybdis, Greek Mythology Link - www.maicar.com
		Charybdis was a sea-monster, who thrice a day drew up the water of the sea and then spouted it again, thus forming a whirlpool.
		Among these, she mentioned Scylla 1 and Charybdis, who had their homes in the two rocks that are at each side of the strait of Messina, between Sicily and Italy.
		Then Circe said that after having passed Scylla 1 and Charybdis, Odysseus and his crew would come to the island of Thrinacia, which some say it is Sicily and that was first called Trinacria because of its triangular shape; but some have said that Odysseus was never in the neighbourhood of Sicily.

	Charybdis - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: )
		In Greek mythology, Charybdis, or Kharybdis ("sucker down"), is a sea monster, daughter of Poseidon and Gaia (mythology), who swallows huge amounts of water three times a day and then spouts it back out again, forming an enormous whirlpool.
		The phrase between Scylla and Charybdis has come to mean being in a state where one is between two dangers and moving away from one will cause you to be in danger from the other.
		Charybdis was originally a sea-nymph who flooded her father's kingdom, the sea, until Zeus turned her into a monster.

	XXIX. c. Scylla and Charybdis. Vols. I & II: Stories of Gods and Heroes. Bulfinch, Thomas. 1913. Age of Fable
		We have already met with Scylla in the story of Glaucus, and remember that she was once a beautiful maiden and was changed into a snaky monster by Circe.
		While Ulysses and his men watched with anxious eyes the dreadful whirlpool, they were not equally on their guard from the attack of Scylla, and the monster, darting forth her snaky heads, caught six of his men, and bore them away, shrieking, to her den.
		After passing Scylla and Charybdis the next land he would make was Thrinakia, an island whereon were pastured the cattle of Hyperion, the Sun, tended by his daughters Lampetia and Phaëthusa.
