Archaeology proves the link between chaos and the prophesied Beast with seven heads.

Chaos is not just a state of disorder, it is a spirit being believed by the pagans of ancient Mesopotamia to be a seven-headed dragon called Tiamat, Bashmu, Yamm and, in the Bible, Leviathan. The battle between a warrior-god and Chaos that led to the creation of the world is called by scholars the Chaoskampf.

In scripture, the war is over by Genesis 1:2. But it is no coincidence that the beast from the sea in Revelation 13 is likewise described as a seven-headed chimera, which is exactly how dragons were depicted in the ancient world.
