More about the book

Exploring the Indus culture's seals, the book presents a unique interpretation of a depicted horned animal, referred to as a unicorn, alongside a cult object that symbolizes a basket and fig fruit. The author argues that this creature may have existed during the Indus era, tracing its lineage to the extinct Bos namadicus. Additionally, the text delves into the origins of the western unicorn concept, drawing connections to Greek traditions, Buddhist legends, and biblical allegories, highlighting the significant cultural differences between the two interpretations.
