Flying Dragon
The Flying dragon, a legendary reptilian monster similar in form to a
crocodile, but having wings, huge claws, and a fiery breath. In some folklore
of antiquity, the dragon symbolizes destruction and evil. This conception is
found, for example, in Enuma Elish, a Mesopotamian creation epic written about
2000 BC. One of the central figures of the legend is the goddess Tiamat, a
dragonlike personification of the oceans, who headed the hordes of chaos and
whose destruction was prerequisite to an orderly universe. In the sacred
writings of the ancient Hebrews, the dragon frequently represents death and
evil. Christianity inherited the Hebraic conception of the dragon, which
figures in all the important apocalyptic literature of the Bible, notably in
Revelation, and appears in later Christian traditions. In Christian art, the
dragon is a symbol of sin. It is often represented as crushed under the feet
of saints and martyrs, symbolizing the triumph of Christianity over paganism.
