Do you think Dragons exist? or did they ever exist? Where did the myth of Dragons come from?

Question

Do you think Dragons exist but they are very secluded and yet we are unable to find them? If not, do you think Dragons did exist at one point a very long-time ago? You know, the traditional Fire-Breathing Dragon, Green Dragons, Red Dragons, Chinese Dragons, etc.

 

Answer 1

The bones of dragons were found by the Chinese centuries before the countries of the West. That they were later labeled Saurians makes little difference to the paintings and tales that the Chinese evolved from the finding of those huge bones, teeth, and claws..

 

Answer 2

No one is sure where the legend of dragons came from, But do to the skeletal remains that have been found there is no doubt that one time in the history of this world dragon have actually existed........ Now there skeletons have been found in the Middle East, Asia, Europe.... But most people say that Asia has the strongest legend and stories about the existences dragons...........

 

Answer 3

I'm told that fossils discovered in ancient china were taken to be dragon bones but they already had dragon legends in place to lead them to that conclusion.

 

Personally I always imagined that somebody describing a tornado to somebody else in those bygone eras would say things like, "looked like a snake so big its tail was on the ground and its head was in the clouds." And "destroyed a whole village with one sweep of its tail."

 

Stuff like that.

Answer 4

No, such creatures are impossible. They are just one of many creatures men invented. Did you never hear of the power of human imagination? I am chinese, and Chinese dragons are much differnt from European dragons. We have 2 main types in our legends: mang and lung.

 

Answer 5

chinese people associate them with luck.. western people think otherwise (at least).. i've heard somewhere that their image was derived from that of a crocodile..
