The idea that accounts of Dragons are actually UFO encounters might not be as fetched as it initially seems. The picture to above was taken of a UFO in North Carolina in December 2012. |
Dragons or UFOs - Historical Accounts
One incidence described in the book occurred in 1405 when a monk, John De Hokelowe talks about a towns encounter with a Dragon.
"Close to the town of Bures, near Sudbury, there has lately appeared to the great hurt of the countryside a Dragon, vast in body with crested head, teeth like a saw and a tail extending to enormous length. Having slain the shepherd of a flock, he then devoured many sheep. There came forth to shoot him arrows the workmen of the Lord on who's domain he had concealed himself. But the Dragons body being struck by archers remained unhurt, for the arrows bounced off its back as if it were iron or hard rock. Those arrows that struck the spine of his back gave out as they struck a ringing or tingling sound, just as if they had hit a brazen plate then flew far away off as per reason of the hide of this great beast being impenetrable. There upon in order to destroy him all the country people around were summoned. But when the dragon saw that he was again about to be assailed by arrows he fled into a marsh or mer and hid himself among the reeds nor was he anymore seen."
In this account there are a lot of similarities with modern day UFO encounters. I can not ignore the description where the monk clearly talks about a head. teeth and a tail. This does not sound much like the modern day image of a flying saucer, although UFOs do of course come in all shapes and sizes. The description of the devouring of sheep is similar to reports of UFO cattle mutilations. There have also been reports of people shooting at UFOs and the bullets bouncing off which is similar to the experience of the archers in this account, shooting at a dragon that clearly seems to have metallic attributes. It is also strange how the dragon made his escape and was never seen again, something that is reminiscent of a UFO encounter.

Whats Really Going On?
It seems to me that a few things are possible.
1) That Dragons were in fact biological creatures who's aggressive and fearsome nature made them hard to live along side humans so they were hunted and became extinct. This kind of thing has happened to thousands of species over human evolution and in my mind it is certainly a possibility. This would account for the many legends and stories of Knights killing dragons.
2) Dragons were in fact UFOs being mistaken for biological creatures by people with no possible comprehension of a spaceship. It could also be the case that UFOs can shift there appearance. We certainly have modern day accounts of this.
3) That overtime stories that were meant for amusement, the teaching of moral principals or spiritual understanding have been diluted and there original message lost so they should not be taken literally.
In my mind all these factors are in play. Some probably are accounts of biological creates, whilst overs are really UFOs being mistaken for Dragons. I am sure if a Dragon flew past my window right now it would go on the records as a UFO. Time and legend have left us with intriguing mysteries to explore but there is no simple one explanation.
