EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing image depicts the figure of the Camphur, an amphibious beast believed to be a unique species of unicorn, as it was traditionally described in Ethiopian folklore. Dating back to the late 16th century, this historic print originates from the Mary Evans Picture Library and offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich and diverse mythology of Ethiopia. The Camphur, also known as the Ethiopian unicorn, was said to inhabit the rivers and marshes of the region. Unlike its European counterpart, which is often depicted as a solitary, horse-like creature with a single horn, the Camphur was described as having the body of a horse, the legs of a goat, and the tail of a fish. It was also believed to possess magical powers and was revered for its healing properties. The origins of the Camphur legend can be traced back to ancient Ethiopian texts and oral traditions. The figure of the Camphur reflects the unique cultural heritage and mythology of Ethiopia, which has been shaped by its diverse history and geography. This historic print serves as an important reminder of the enduring power of folklore and mythology to capture the imagination and inspire wonder. The intricate details of the Camphur's form and the lush, verdant landscape in the background add to the enchanting quality of this image. The print's age and rarity make it a valuable addition to any collection of historical and mythological art. This image invites us to explore the rich and diverse world of Ethiopian folklore and to appreciate the unique and magical creatures that have shaped the cultural imagination for centuries.
