ЧТО ОЗНАЧАЕТ СЛОВО DRAGON
Дракон
Дракон - легендарное существо, как правило, с серпентинскими или рептилийскими чертами, которое характерно для мифов многих культур. Существуют две различные культурные традиции драконов: европейский дракон, полученный из европейских народных традиций и в конечном счете связанный с греческой и ближневосточной мифологией, и китайский дракон с контрагентами в Японии, Корее и других странах Восточной Азии. Эти две традиции могли развиваться по отдельности, но в определенной степени влияли друг на друга, особенно с межкультурным контактом последних столетий. Английское слово «дракон» происходит от греческого δράκων, «дракона, змея огромных размеров, водяной змеи».
