Unicorn is a mysterious creature in legend. It is usually described as a slender white horse with a spiral angle on its forehead (which is also a characteristic of unicorns). There are different opinions about the shape of unicorns. Some people say that it is like a big horse with horns on its head, and it is a creature that is difficult to tame.
Some people think it is a goat-like creature, a unicorn, a sacred creature, and some even believe in unicorns. Palisse, an ancient Roman naturalist, described unicorns as extremely fierce monsters, with limbs like elephants, a lion's tail, a goat's upper body and a black spiral horn on its head. There was a Greek philosopher, Ctessias, who created a universal form of unicorns.

Unicorns only appear in European legends.
Although unicorns existed in Europe in early history, they were actually in the Old Testament. As an animal in Hebrew legend, most of its early descriptions seem to come from karkadann (the name of an animal) of the Arab king.
In Persia, Arabia, India and North Africa, the fierce Kakadan is not like a docile unicorn, but an animal that people and animals are afraid of. However, in order to get its horn, people occasionally try to catch karkadann. Its horns can be used to make flutes or detoxification drugs.
There was a pharmacist named Cassius in Cornidos, who made medicines for Darius II. Since then, he has also played for Persia. He left Knidos in 4 16 BC and returned to Knidos in 398 BC. He learned the way of keeping in good health and tried to preserve a lot of knowledge about life and history.
