Tales of the Griffin's origin lie thousands of years ago in the Gobi Desert. If you look at the original description, it is said to be the size of a lion with four legs and the beak of an eagle. It is suggested to have small wings, possibly used for gliding (pure speculation). It guards its nests and protects its young. The answer? Protoceratops and Psittacosaurus. Both fit the description and are the right size. Those who firs came across it had no concept of fossils or a world that existed before theirs. They did their best to describe the skeletons they found. Fossils in the Gobi are petrified in a way so they look like bleached bone, and the explorers and gold seekers commonly found the bleached remains of those who had fallen to thirst and exposure. Is the Griffin a myth? The type we are familiar with - YES. The origins of the creature - NO, it was wholly believed to be real and at one time, it was.
