A history of Dragons
Since the dawn of written history, people the world over have been captivated by this majestic, mythical beast. Depending on the culture, it was said to breathe fire, embody evil, grant wishes or bring luck. Sometimes depicted as a legged winding serpent that magically floats through the air, other times it’s presented like an enormous winged lizard with sharp horns and claws. Still, other times it’s depicted as some variation between flying dinosaur and enormous sea snake. Dragons appear in every culture of the world, tucked into every nation, dating back for centuries. But where did this beast come from? Was it nothing but the aureate wiles of human imagination that dreamt up such a magnificent and daunting creature, or does it have roots somewhere in ancient history?
