Fossils are the origin of many mythological creatures. the most notable of these creatures is the dragon. In China, theropod (meat eating dinosaurs) bones are called ,by the locals, dragon bones. The fossils are ground up and used as medicinal remedies. In greek and roman myth, Dragons (or serpents) play an integral role through the tales. The best example is the serpent that Cadmus defeated. this Greek serpent was the creature who's teeth, if planted became warriors. the dragon was also a servant of Loki.
