About "Oryx, gemsbok"

by antonvanbeek.nl

About the artwork

Oryxes can be recognised by their long, thin straight horns, relatively short mane, hump on the shoulder and large hooves. The thin fur is white in colour with black, grey and/or brown markings. Both sexes wear horns. They have a shoulder height of 81 to 120 centimetres and a body weight of 65 to 200 kilograms. The horns grow 38 to 127 centimetres long. The genus name Oryx is probably derived from Herodotus, who describes an antelope from Libya named "Orys". This name seems to derive from the verb "oryssoo "or "oryttoo" meaning to dig. The Arabian Oryx digs pits in the sand to rest cooler. Herodotus' Libyan "Orys" was possibly the Algazel, but the Addax from the same area could also qualify.

Sightings of oryx probably lie at the origin of the unicorn. The translators of the Septuagint chose for the Hebrew word "Reem" the Greek translation "Monokeroos" or Unicorn, possibly because in Psalm 22:21 the word "karen = horn" is used in singular, in relation to "Remim" in plural. In Israel, "Reem" is the common name for the genus Oryx, "Reem laban" is the Arabian Oryx or White Oryx, "Reem Sahara" is the Algazel. In Arabic, a name for the White Oryx is "Rim" or "Ri'im", the Arabic Bible translation is the only one that correctly corrected the medieval translation of "Reem", all other translators chose Unicorns, Rhinos or bovine species.
