Aloha Tide Riders and welcome to the second installment of our Old School Classic Cryptids Saga. This week on Strange Tides, we’re diving deep into the ancient waters of myth, mystery, and maybe even multiverse truth, as we explore two of the most legendary creatures to ever gallop through human imagination: unicorns and winged horses. These aren't just bedtime stories or fantasy filler—these beings have roots in global history, sacred texts, firsthand sightings, and yes, even classified theories.We break it down like this:🌍 Ancient Origins Across Cultures – From China’s benevolent Qilin to India’s one-horned beasts and the unicorn mentions in the Hebrew Bible, to Pegasus bursting out of Medusa’s neck in Greek mythology—these creatures are truly global travelers.🧭 Historical Sightings – What did Marco Polo really see when he wrote about unicorns in Java? Why was Genghis Khan so freaked out by one in 1224? And what was Sir Henry Johnston chasing through the Congo in 1900? Plus, the eerie unicorn sighting in the Scottish Highlands in 2016 and those mysterious winged shapes seen near Sedona’s vortexes.🦴 Fossils & Fakes – We’re talking Siberian Elasmotherium fossils, 17th-century “unicorn skeletons,” narwhal tusks sold as unicorn horns in royal courts, and the infamous 20th-century unicorn hoaxes.🛸 Tinfoil Teepee Theories – Could these beings be:🧬 Genetic hybrids crafted by ancient aliens?👻 Spirit guides from higher realms?🌐 Glitches in the simulation?🚪 Interdimensional visitors slipping through ley lines and sacred sites?Whether they’re real, symbolic, or something in between, unicorns and winged horses have a serious grip on the collective human psyche. They've shown up in alchemy, dreams, prophecies, and even government symbology (looking at you, Scotland).So saddle up, all you Tide Riders out there. We’re chasing hoofbeats through history, thunderclouds, and cosmic mystery on this ride.Links:https://www.google.com/imgres?q=saola&imgurl=https%3A%2F%2Ffiles.worldwildlife.org%2Fwwfcmsprod%2Fimages%2FSaola%2Fhero_small%2F9rljuvjh6l_Saola_Circle_image_HI_37218.jpg&imgrefurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.worldwildlife.org%2Fspecies%2Fsaola&docid=WTtNYfy3vwtW5M&tbnid=rvoAJNd04dGZeM&vet=12ahUKEwiT8YrEkcuNAxW2I0QIHTvPBzQQM3oECBUQAA..i&w=640&h=480&hcb=2&ved=2ahUKEwiT8YrEkcuNAxW2I0QIHTvPBzQQM3oECBUQAAArticle Link: http://www.phantomsandmonsters.com/2010/10/fortean-oddball-news-unicorn-sighting.htmlVideo Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqDqewZrsNsVideo Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3VldPZU3CIPhoto Link: https://a-z-animals.com/media/2022/07/Elasmotherium-header.jpgMusical links available upon request
