Centipede Dragon is a magical half-this, half-that, creature that was based on a batik, indigo-dyed, textile design created by the Miao (Hmong) ethnic group of China. A farming community, the Miao (Hmong) decorated their textiles with symbols to bring them luck in the harvest season. Both the centipede and the dragon are two lucky symbols, and so often, the designs incorporated a hybrid of two symbols into one double lucky symbol.
