There is hope for this idea of a fused branch though as several creatures such as Manticores, Chimeras, and other winged creatures often with bird and mammalian traits can be found. With all available evidence pointing to the creature either existing before written knowledge or at the same time, with no fossil evidence of a predecessor we can only guess as to how the 2 branches have fused.
Biologically they seem to be some distant link between both the mammalian and bird kingdoms that we know of. The elves in the carvings are riding Griffons as mounts, which isn't uncommon, however, only a few Griffons are seen.ĭespite having early accounts from Orc, Elven, Dwarven, Halfling, and Human cultures Griffons are simply there and not discussed as to how they came to be. Orcs carvings depicting either war or large skirmish between ancient elves and Orcs are the first accounts we have. The earliest accounts we have of Griffons aren't from a culture that usually holds them in high esteem though. Many cultures, both modern and ancient, have references and reverence for Griffons. There are many reasons as to why the roots of Griffons have become obscured.
