Original text on this topic:
In mythology, many fantastic animals are known. One of the most famous is certainly the drake (figs. pp. 7-8). The present article speaks also about the famous Klagenfurt's drake (vide pp. 9-10, fig p. 9). A skull – ascribed to Coelodonta antiquitatis by the palaeontologist Franz Unger in 1840 (fig. p. 10) – was found in the surroundings of Klagenfurt in the XV century. For a long time, it has been considered as a drake skull.
