The medieval zifius appears to have morphed into the later ziphius. This ziphius is from the 1539 "Carta marina" created by Olaus Magnus (1490-1557). The creature attacking it is unnamed. #medievalmanuscripts #medievalbeasts #zifius

This version of the zifius from a 13th century "Libera de natura rerum" has been drawn as a whale in response to the description of a sea monster unlike any other. #medievalmanuscripts #medievalbeasts #zifius

This worried-looking zifius is from a later version (c1300-1325) of "Der Naturen Bloeme". It is still described as a sea monster despite looking more like a dragon. #medievalmanuscripts #medievalbeasts #zifius

This week's medieval beast is the little-known zifius simply described as a sea monster unlike any other animal. This particular zifius is from the earliest known version (c1287) of "Der Naturen Bloeme". #medievalmanuscripts #medievalbeasts #zifius
