The word 'basilisk' derives from the Greek basilískos, meaning a type of serpent and, literally, the diminutive of basileús ('king'). In his encyclopaedic work Naturalis Historia, the Roman scholar Pliny the Elder described the basilisk as a highly venomous snake with a white marking on its head resembling a crown. According to Pliny, its only natural enemy was the weasel, whose scent alone could overcome the creature.
