Golden Horn Unicorn is the mascot of Dewa United FC, Dewa United FC comes from Banten. There is a mythological animal that lives in Banten, Indonesia namely the Unicorn. Marco Polo had stopped in Indonesia, more precisely to the islands of Sumatra and Java, on his way back to Europe. He claimed to have seen a unicorn or a mythological creature in the form of a one-horned horse. However, the researchers concluded that the animal Marco Polo saw was actually a one-horned rhino. Lampung province is the only one in the world where the one-horned rhino habitat still exists. Therefore, Dewa United FC made Unicorn a mascot. The philosophy of the unicorn is that the animal represents purity, healing, joy, courage, and unmatched strength. Dewa United's nickname is Deluxe Unicorn (Luxury Unicorn), because the Dewa United club has luxurious facilities that support achievements when competing in Liga 1.
