Description
The first accounts of unicorns in human history date back to roughly 400 BC, and though many people of this era believed the beasts existed, modern scholars believe that ancient societies simply mistook other animals in the wild such as a rhinoceros or wild bull as a horse. The myth behind the beast stuck though and the creatures became feared as strong and fierce beasts.
