Unicorn:
Today: Popular fiction describes a unicorn as a horse with a horn growing
from its forehead. A mythical creature with magical attributes.
1611: ???.
As the Bible describes it, a unicorn is strong, difficult to train, and has a magnificent horn.
It is never described like a horse and it has no remarkable powers outside of its strength.
Logical comparison fits the theory that the unicorn was perhaps a monoceratops, an enormous
reptile with one horn projecting from its face, either the nose or the forehead.
