#Chinese #麒麟 #Unicorn The unicorn usually has the body of ahorse, with a single (usually spiral) horn growing out of its forehead (hence its name—cornus being Latin for “horn”). In the West, the image of the unicorn has a billy-goatbeard, a lion's tail, and cloven hooves, which distinguish it from a horse. In the East, the unicorn is depicted somewhat differently. Though the qilin (麒麟, Chinese), a creature inChinese mythology, is sometimes called "the Chinese unicorn," it is a hybrid animal that looks less unicorn than chimera, with the body of a deer, the head of a lion, green scales, and a long forwardly-curved horn. The JapaneseKirin, though based on the Chinese animal, is usually portrayed as more closely resembling the Western unicorn than the Chinese qilin.[1]The name Kirin is also used in Japanese forgiraffe. In both the East and West, the unicorn is a symbol of purity. In medieval lore, the alicorn,the spiraled horn of the unicorn (the word "Alicorn" can also be the name for a winged unicorn/horned Pegasus), is said to be able to heal and neutralize poisons. This virtue is derived from Ctesias' reports on the unicorn inIndia, that it was used by the rulers of that place to make drinking cups that would detoxify poisons.
