The Egyptians had two different species of Unicorn, the Elisserion (which is mentioned in the Bible, don't remember exact place though) and the small Goat Unicorn seen in some of the art on temple walls.

The Elisserion was a large goat-like Unicorn with a horn the curved back. Sometimes equated with the Oryx. (I chose a generic color scheme on this since no actual description survives, as far as I know)

The small Goat Unicorn was just that, a small goat-like Unicorn that most scholars dismiss as a goat.

Both have cloven hooves and curvy horns.


This is part of my "Unicorn Species" Series. Based on descriptions I have available, these are what I think they would look like!

If anyone knows of any I missed, please let me know, but look thru all of them first! Thanks!
