存世的青铜器中也有犀牛的形象，著名的有现收藏于美国旧金山亚洲艺术博物馆的小臣艅犀尊，属于商代晚期的器物，是很写实的苏门答腊犀形象。还有中国国家博物馆的错金银云纹青铜犀尊，其年代有争议，一般认为为战国到西汉之间，由于头上有两只角，也属于苏门答腊犀。这说明先秦时期人们能够准确把握犀牛的特征，对于犀牛的形象比较熟悉。

古人认为犀牛的灵异来自于犀角，所以犀角也成了珍贵的东西，上面说的犀牛名目也是主要指犀牛角。唐代流行束蹀躞（读碟谢）带，那时最讲究的带銙是用犀角制成的。《新唐书·车服志》记载“诸亲朝贺宴会之服：一品、二品服玉及通犀，三品服花犀、班犀。”所谓通犀、花犀、班犀都是犀角的种类，其中通犀又称通天犀，是指那种中间有一条白线直通到顶的犀角。这种犀角被认为能够“出气通天”，所以有“心有灵犀一点通”的说法。古代传说犀牛喜欢看星星，看着看着，星星飞到了犀牛角里，犀牛角就有了分水的功能。还有传说认为犀牛喜欢看月亮，看的久了，犀角上就会长出月亮的形状，成语犀牛望月就是这么来的。
The ancients believe that the supernatural rhino from rhino horn, so rhino horn has become a precious thing, said the name of the rhinoceros is mainly refers to rhino horn. Popular in tang dynasty DieXie beam (read disc xie), then the most cultured with 銙 is made of horn.

The so-called rhinoceros, flower rhinoceros, class rhinoceros is the type of rhino horn, which also known as the rhinoceros, refers to the kind of middle there is a white line straight to the top of the rhinoceros horn. The horn is thought to be able to breathe through the air, so there is a saying that "a mind ACTS upon a mind."

There is a legend that rhinoceros like to see the moon, see for a long time, rhinoceros horn will grow out of the shape of the moon, idiom rhinoceros full moon is so.

由于犀牛罕见，也就逐渐成了传说中灵异的动物。唐代关于犀牛的名目有“却尘犀”“避水犀”“避暑犀”“夜明犀”“蠲忿（读绢奋，消除愤怒的意思）犀”“避寒犀”等等。《西游记》中玄英洞里的三个犀牛精分别叫辟寒大王、辟暑大王和辟尘大王，其源头就来自这里。也是从唐代开始，由于人们对于犀牛不熟悉，更弄不清楚兕是什么，所以兕和犀牛逐渐合一，兕也成了犀牛的别称。此藏品明代铜犀牛摆件存世量极少，极具收藏价值！
