Mythical insect
The gold-digging ant is a mythical insect described in classical and medieval bestiaries. They were dog- or fox-sized ants that dug up gold in sandy areas. Some versions of the Physiologus said they came from Aethiopia, while Herodotus claimed they were located in India. They were also briefly mentioned by Megasthenes in his book Indika.
