Biography

Makara is an aquatic monster in Hindu lore. It means "sea dragon" or "water monster" in Sanskrit and relates to "magar", the Hindi word for "crocodile". Its depictions vary widely through history, but it's always a hybrid creature that is at home in the water and capable of going on land. The front may resemble a short-snouted creature, but more often the makara has an elongated face like an elephant, crocodile, or dolpin. The makara may have any number of legs: none, two, or four, and while variaties to its hind exist it usually ends in a fish tail. The makara ranks among the vahanas, divine mounts, and are known to carry Ganga and Varuna. Other gods wear makara-shaped earrings and Kamadeva has the makara as his insignia. Statues of makaras are commonly in use as guardians of gateways of important buildings, and also are in use as waterspouts. Cross-culturally, makara are the Zodiac counterpart to capricorns and may be one of the inspirations to the Japanese shachihoko.
