Don’t you get amazed of what you’re looking at? A mysterious one-horned creature that has enchanted the many but believed to only be tamed by a Virgin. For some, it is believed to be legendary with a slender usually spiral horn growing on it’s forehead.

I remember having fun watching Ally McBeal. I’m assuming you guys know Ally McBeal – a young Boston lawyer notable for it’s dancing baby. But that was not what I will be talking about. I’m referring to one episode which spoke of Unicorn. A complainant who was terminated from his job as he was known to have psychological illness manifested by seeing a unicorn in his office. Ally shared the same sentiments only that she saw and touched the creature when she was 10 years old. The male complainant said it is a symbol of hope. Hope that wishes are still to come true.

I’ve heard a lot of Unicorns, got enchanted and stunned by the beauty that never fails to amaze anybody. For me, it’s a sacred creature that only the innocent can fathom it’s mystery.
In Ancient Greece, Ctesias of Cnidus‘s epitome of a Unicorn was that it was a native to India, the size of a donkey, with a burgundy head and white body; it had blue eyes, a single horn that was bright red at the top, black in the middle, and white at the bottom; the horn was also eighteen inches long."

Aristotle had mentioned two one-horned animals; the oryx coming from the antelope family and the Indian Ass. The latter believed to be a very ferocious beast, it’s body similar to that of a horse, with a head of a deer, feet of an elephant, a boar’s tail, with a deep bellowing voice and a single horn standing out of it’s forehead.

Julius Caesar on the other hand described it to have had a deer’s head, an elephant’s feet, a boar’s tail with a 3-feet long horn.

Prehistoric paintings depicts the existence of single-horned creatures from the caves of Lascaux, France and Lago Posadas in Argentina.

During the middle ages, Unicorn was believed to be the symbol of Christ. Also, existed the allegory in which the unicorn symbolizes incarnation and was trapped by a maiden representing the Mother of Christ.
