From Ancient Greek Mythos – The ''Jaculus'' (or translated to meaning ''thrown''), was said to be a small-sized Dragon Being, that lived in trees. Overly ''slender'', when a victim came by – The Jaculus would propel itself in a straight trajectory, similar to a Spear (to strike). As such, the use of the Greek wepaon known as The Javelin was associated with The Jaculus. Several other Cultures have Jaculus-type creatures, to include The Norse. It's true meaning may be related to One's ability to ''strike with stealth'' and may have evolved from Ancient military ideology.
