Evidence of an ancient race of men with heads like dogs, is attested by multiple historians,
the accounts of explorers, and the artwork of cartographers.
Who were the dog men?
Where could they be found?
How did they vanish from the face of the earth,
and is there a possibility that members of this tribe, have survived until the present day?
In Egypt, the most monolithic civilization of old,
three gods were represented as a human being, with the head of dog...
Duamutef and Wepwawet, two gods of war, and Anubis, ruler of the dead.
Was the Egyptian artwork depicting members of a race,
which at one time co-existed with man?
Reports of this race first appear in Greece.
The Greek physician Ctesias, in a geographical treatise,
wrote that in the mountains of India, there live men with dog heads,
known as the Cynocephali, whose territory extends as far as the river Indus.
They can understand language, but they have no ability to speak.
They communicate with their own kind by barking like dogs.
Their population numbered over one hundred thousand.
The Cynocephali produced amber and purple dye, large quantities of which they presented
as annual tribute to the king of India.
They did not live in houses.
They lived in caves under the earth.
Eight centuries earlier, according to oral history,
the Argonauts of Greece waged battle against the half dog tribe,
at a place which today is located in Serbia.
Their location in this area is independently confirmed by Serbian oral tradition,
which speaks of the creature Psoglav, having a human body and a canine's head, with teeth of iron.
Psoglavs were said to live in a dark land with many gemstones, but no sun.
This confirms they lived in caves.
The most famous of the dog men is Saint Christopher,
who appears in several Christian texts, and many examples of religious art.
Prior to his conversion, Christopher was said to have been a savage and ferocious soldier,
captured in battle on the eastern coast of Libya.
He was a large man with the head of a hound, from a tribe of warriors.
After meeting Jesus, he repented and was baptized, eventually receiving sainthood,
and occasionally granted the honor of being painted with a human face, in later iconic art.
A Chinese historian, Li Yanshou of the Tang dynasty, mentions a dog kingdom...
and during the Liang Dynasty of China, the Buddhist missionary Huisheng
describes an island of dog-headed men, to the east of Fusang,
a nation he visited himself, which has since been identified as Japan.
In one story of King Arthur, his men are caught in a skirmish,
fighting against dog headed warriors in the mountains of Edinburgh.
Hundreds of them fall under the sword of the English knight Bedivere.
The famous explorer Marco Polo
wrote of his journey to the Andaman Islands, off the coast of India.
He wrote about his meeting with barbarian men with heads like hounds,
and he also identified the breed as Mastiff.
They grew their own spices, which they were willing to trade.
They displayed a primitive form of organized religion, and worshiped oxen.
From their necks hung religious charms, created from pieces of silver and gold.
We can guess what happened to this fierce but minority race.
As the empires of men expanded, the half dogs were exterminated.
The evidence suggests they were a proud and aggressive tribe,
which would have preferred to die in battle, rather than be assimilated into human culture.
However if self-destructive humankind relinquishes its claim to rule the earth,
the Cynocephali may once more arise from their caves.
And as we have seen, even semi-human monstrosities
such as a dog headed beast who became Saint Christopher,
were susceptible to favorable transformations.
And they had permutability, or this transformation of their human essence,
was thoroughly compatible during Christianity's reign in Europe
with the church's fervent crusade to bring all the world's people under its heavenly control.
Those men called negroes lived like people of the golden age...
a more kind and loving people, than any other people in the world
as far as we have seen, until the present day.
