What's the connection between a dog, a decapitation and a book of dreams?

Two of the components have a Greek connection. The middle one might be quite hard.

Yes!!
(The mound where the Medusa's head is buried is pretty big actually - it's to the right of the Larissa hill with the castle on it as you look from Nafplio. It has a couple of sanctuaries on it - one of Apollo, and one of Athena. A bit minimal now, but must have been pretty significant when Pausanias was writing. We found him really useful this hols.)
