The lore of the unicorn

Article Abstract:

The origin of the unicorn has remained a mystery until today. A written account about unicorns first appeared around 400 B.C. in the book 'Indica' by Greek historian and physician Ctesias. Unicorns then became a symbol of Jesus Christ to Christians during the Middle Ages.
