Furry History

Postby Holyman83 » Mon Oct 03, 2005 3:39 am

I thought it would be interisting to find out were the first furrys were in time. <br>for example The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe. I know this is no were near the first but I want to see what Happens to the topic first.

The talking animals of Aesop fables mayhap? The animal headed Egyptian gods?

For a firmer, this is definately furry, thing would have to be the Disney's Robin Hood.
I wonder if it'll finally get it's own forum too. I've always wanted a place online where I can talk about O&M.

I suppose it depends if you're making it a history of Furry Culture or anthropomorphism in general.

If we go into the mythology of animals/humans in different cultures, we'll end up writing a whole book. That particular area goes all the way to prehistoric times with the discovery of cave paintings depicting half animal, half human creatures.

"And the lion's wings were removed from him, and he was lifted from the ground, and he was made to stand upright on his hind legs, and he was given a human heart." - Daniel 7:4, c. 580 BC.

I remember Monty Python did a sketch about people who dressed up like mice. That's kind of furry history.
See?

That is one of the dreams Daniel had. It is talking about the kingdoms that will be created and fall and that the only one that will survive is the Kingdom of the Most High God. <br><br>if you want to read the whole story there are a lot of online bibles CH 7 is just that dream and it is not very long<br>
