The more vicious side of the Cynocephali or at least one of their tribes was documented in the story if Jason and the Argonauts, who, in their quest for the Golden Fleece about their ship, the Argo, came across a group of Cynocephali.
The battle ended up in a win for the traveling adventurers, but it put the vision of the dog-faced humans as brutal foes in peoples minds.

The Cynocephali didn’t belong to the Greeks alone and were well-known far beyond Greece, with different names, but with very similar characteristics. They were documented in Egypt, the gods Hapi and Anubis were shown to have the faces of dogs and were also a part of the tales of ancient China that described the citizens of a mythical continent called Fusang.

According to a Buddhist missionary named Hui-Sheng, an island of dog-headed men lived on an island to the east of Fusang where it was knows as Dog Kingdom.
