Dating back to between 4000 and 5000 BC, dragons have been an vital fragment of our time. We'll most likely never know if dragons actually walked the planet but one thing for certain is that they have left gigantic footprints in our imagination. These incredible reptilian/serpentine creatures are discovered in countless different cultures, and every one of those dragons is as distinctive as the culture itself. Some live in the center of the planet, others live in the sea. Some have wings, some don't. Some have hundreds of legs, some have four. Some have nine heads, others have one. Some have five claws, most have less. Some are allys and others are fiends. All are a imageof astounding strength and power. Analyses propose that the Tiamat, a goddess that personifies the sea, in ancient Babylonian and Assyrian text is the first allusion to the existence of dragons. Historians, however, can dragon nest gold(http://www.gamegoldfast.com/dragonnest/buy-dragonnest-gold.php) not verify whether or not Tiamat was the same variety of creature as what we call a dragon. Consequently, the history of dragon can not be with certainty connected to Tiamet. Perhaps the best documented dragons come from the Chinese culture. These beings are said to be made of parts from nine different animals: the body of a snake, talons of an eagle, antlers of a dear, head of a camel, belly of a clam, ears of a cow, soles of a tiger, 117 scales of a carp, and eyes of a demon. Eastern dragons are signs of virtue and honor; their domain is that of water, including rain, and they represent change. They are forces of mother nature and the universe; defender of Buddhist law. In this cultural system, dragons represent prosperity, fortune, and knowledge. On the other hand, the Western dragons is looked upon as fearsome and ferocious. We read about these sorts of dragons in tales of Hercules and Beowolf. In northern Europe, Thor battled the Jmungandr (the World Serpent). West dragons are fierce creatures that protected (and horded) treasure and that heroes would have to slain to protect helpless maidens (acts that often ended in matrimony). These were fire breathing dragons, more like the contemporary American dragons we are familiar today. Within time, battles involving the Western dragon came to epitomize the battle between virtue and bad. In the book of Revelations, the devil is referred to as a "great dragon. " Tales tell of people who are changed into dragons as punishment for selfishness. Others tell of dragons devouring children and even the sun and moon, causing eclipses. In the present day, dragons are the symbol of power, of supernatural abilities, and of protection. People adorn their abodes and their bodies with symbols of the spiritual creatures. Films portray dragons as mystical imaginary friends to fantasy foes. While we no longer talk about heroes opposing dragons, the creatures are still prevalent in our culture, for better or worse.
