Legend of the Dragon on top of natural obsidian gems by maestro GOD.
Long before mankind paint and draw Dragon creature turns on the Lord first natural media painting on obsidian gems, these gems fhoto result is :
A dragon is a legendary creature, typically with serpentine or reptilian traits, that features in the myths of many cultures. There are two distinct cultural traditions of dragons: the European dragon, derived from European folk traditions and ultimately related to Greek and Middle Eastern mythologies, and the Chinese dragon, with counterparts in Japan, Korea and other East Asian countries.
The two traditions may have evolved separately, but have influenced
each other to a certain extent, particularly with the cross-cultural
contact of recent centuries. The English word "dragon" derives from Greek δράκων (drákōn), "dragon, serpent of huge size, water-snake".[1]
European dragons exist in folklore and mythology among the overlapping cultures of Europe. Dragons are generally depicted as living in rivers or having an underground lair or cave.[8]
They are commonly described as having hard or armoured hide, and are
rarely described as flying, despite often being depicted with wings.
European dragons are usually depicted as malevolent though there are exceptions (such as Y Ddraig Goch, the Red Dragon of Wales).
Slavic dragon
"Dragon Family" in Varna, Bulgaria.
In Slavic mythology, the words “zmey”, "zmiy" or "zmaj"
are used to describe dragons. These words are masculine forms of the
Slavic word for "snake", which are normally feminine (like Russian zmeya). In Romania, there is a similar figure, derived from the Slavic dragon and named zmeu. Exclusively in Polish and Belarusian folklore, as well as in the other Slavic folklores, a dragon is also called (variously) смок, цмок, or smok. In South Slavic folklores, the same thing is also called lamya (ламйа, ламjа, lamja). Although quite similar to other European dragons, Slavic dragons have their peculiarities.
Russian dragons usually have heads in multiples of three. Some have heads that grow back if every single head isn't cut off. In Ukraine and Russia, a particular dragon-like creature, Zmey Gorynych, has three heads and spits fire. According to one bylina, Zmey Gorynych was killed by bogatyr Dobrynya Nikitich.
Other Russian dragons (such as Tugarin Zmeyevich) have Turkic names, probably symbolizing the Mongols and other nomadic steppe peoples. Accordingly, St George (symbolizing Christianity) killing the Dragon (symbolizing Satan) is represented on the coat of arms of Moscow. Some prehistoric structures, notably the Serpent's Wall near Kiev, have been associated with dragons.
Ancient India
In the early Vedic religion, Vritra (Sanskrit: वृत्र (Devanāgarī) or Vṛtra (IAST)) "the enveloper", was an Asura and also a "naga" (serpent) (Sanskrit: नाग)[9] or possibly dragon-like creature, the personification of drought and enemy of Indra. Vritra was also known in the Vedas as Ahi ("snake") (Sanskrit: अहि),[10] and he is said to have had three heads.
The Life of Apollonius of Tyana by Flavius Philostratus:[11]
contains a long detailed description of India heavily infested with
dragons, but this does not correspond with modern Indian belief, and
likely not with Indian belief as it was in his time, whether Apollonius
invented this story, or whether he believed someone else who told him
it.
Persian
Aži Dahāka is the source of the modern Persian
word azhdahā or ezhdehā اژده ها (Middle Persian azdahāg) meaning
"dragon", often used of a dragon depicted upon a banner of war. The
Persians believed that the baby of a dragon will be the same color as
the mother's eyes. In Middle Persian
he is called Dahāg or Bēvar-Asp, the latter meaning "[he who has]
10,000 horses." Several other dragons and dragon-like creatures, all of
them malevolent, are mentioned in Zoroastrian scripture. (See Zahhāk).
Jewish
In Jewish religious texts, the first mention of a dragon-like creature is in the Biblical works of Job (26:13), and Isaiah (27:1) where it is called Nachash Bare'ach, or a "Pole Serpent".[12] This is identified in the Midrash Rabba to Genesis 1:21 as Leviathan from the word Taninim (תנינים) "and God created the great sea-monsters."[13] In modern Hebrew the word Taninim is used for Crocodiles but this is a 20th century usage unconnected with the original Biblical meaning.[citation needed]
In later Biblical texts, the Book of Isaiah, the Book of Job, and Psalm 89 refer to a sea-demon called Rahab (not to be confused with Rahab, the woman of Jericho mentioned in the Book of Joshua). Isaiah 51:9 equates this Rahab with a dragon or monster. "Rahab" is the English transliteration of רהב (reb) with the several meanings: pride, a mythical sea-monster, or Egypt (as an emblematic name).[14] In the Douay-Rheims version, translated via Medieval Latin from the Vulgate, the word reb is rendered "the proud one" in Isaiah 51:9 and Job 26:12 and "the power of the sea" in Psalm 88:10
(Psalm 88 is equivalent to Psalm 89 in other versions due to different
verse numbering in the Vulgate). The connection between the sea-monster
and "Leviathan the serpent" is made in Isaiah 27:1.[15]
In Jewish astronomy this is also identified with the North Pole, the star Thuban which, around 4,500 years ago, was the star in the Draco constellation's "tail".[12] However this can also have been either the celestial pole or the ecliptic pole.
The ancient observers noted that Draco was at the top of the celestial
pole, giving the appearance that stars were "hanging" from it, and in
Hebrew it is referred to as Teli, from talah (תלה) – to hang.[16] Hebrew writers from Arabic-speaking locations identified the Teli as Al Jaz'har,
which is a Persian word for a "knot" or a "node" because of the
intersection of the inclination of the orbit of a planet from the
elliptic that forms two such nodes. In modern astronomy these are called
the ascending node and the descending node, but in medieval astronomy they were referred to as "dragon's head" and "dragon's tail".[17]

Chinese dragon
In China, depiction of the dragon (traditional:龍;simplified:龙) can be found in artifacts from the Shang and Zhou dynasties with examples dating back to the 16th century BC.[19] Archaeologist Zhōu Chong-Fa believes that the Chinese word for dragon is an onomatopoeia of the sound thunder makes.[20] The Chinese name for dragon is pronounced "lóng" in Mandarin Chinese[19] or "lùhng" in the Cantonese.[21] Sometime after the 9th century AD, Japan adopted the Chinese dragon through the spread of Buddhism.[19] Although the indigenous name for a dragon in Japanese is tatsu (たつ?), a few of the Japanese words for dragon stem from the Chinese word for dragon, namely, "ryū" (りゅう?) or "ryō" (りょう?) (traditional:龍;simplified:竜).[19] The Vietnamese word for dragon is "rồng" (hán tự:龍) and the Korean word for dragon is "ryong" (hangul:용) (hanja:龍).
The Chinese dragon (simplified Chinese: 龙; traditional Chinese: 龍; pinyin: lóng)
is the highest-ranking animal in the Chinese animal hierarchy, strongly
associated at one time with the emperor and hence power and majesty
(the mythical bird fenghuang
was the symbol of the Chinese empress), still recognized and revered.
Its origins are vague, but its "ancestors can be found on Neolithic
pottery as well as Bronze Age ritual vessels."[22]
Tradition has it composed of nine different animals, with nine sons,
each with its own imagery and affiliations. It is the only mythological
animal of the 12 animals that represent the Chinese calendar. 2012 was the Chinese year of the Water Dragon.
Japanese
Japanese dragon myths amalgamate native legends with imported stories
about dragons from China, Korea and India. Like these other Asian
dragons, most Japanese ones are water deities associated with rainfall and bodies of water, and are typically depicted as large, wingless, serpentine creatures with clawed feet. Gould writes (1896:248),[23] the Japanese dragon is "invariably figured as possessing three claws".
Vietnam
Vietnamese dragons (Vietnamese: rồng or long 龍) are symbolic
creatures in the folklore and mythology of Vietnam. According to an
ancient creation myth, the Vietnamese people are descended from a dragon
and a fairy. To Vietnamese people, the dragon brings rain, essential
for agriculture. It represents the emperor, the prosperity and power of
the nation. Like the Chinese dragon, the Vietnamese dragon is the symbol
of yang,
representing the universe, life, existence, and growth. Extant
references to the Vietnamese Dragon are rare now, due to the fierce
changes in history that accompanied the sinicization of the Nguyễn Dynasty.
Java
For the description in Indonesian see id:Naga Jawa.
- Link to read 'id:Naga Jawa' translated into English
The Javanese Dragon (Naga Jawa in Javanese) is a creature of mythology, the world serpent of traditional Javanese mythology. It is a derivative from the Shiva-Hinduism with Javanese animism. In a wayang theater story a snake (Nāga) god named Sanghyang Anantaboga or Antaboga
is supposedly a guardian deity in the bowels of the earth. The Javanese
dragon is described as a figure of a giant magic snake without legs,
and wearing a crown on his head. Sometimes the Javanese Dragon is
depicted wearing earrings and a necklace of gold jewelry. Unlike the
Chinese Dragon and European Dragon, the Javanese Dragon looks unique and
special because it wears a crown like a king and had no legs. Compare
this with the Chinese dragon which has four legs and horns on its head,
and the European dragon which is like a giant long-necked lizard with
wide wings.[24][25]
Thus the various versions of the story Dragon melengeda and long before that happens God has painted on the media in advance of natural gems that can last millions of years.
