Yes, unicorns are really rhinos. Unicorns in the sense of horses with a single horn never existed.
"Unicorns" were actually single-horned rhinos (the Indian Rhinoceros), which were used as beasts of war in ancient times. They were misinterpreted as a mythical creature.
The historical figure Genghis Khan documented that he called off the invasion of India due to witnessing 'terrible and brutal one-horned beasts ridden by man', which today we understand were War Rhinos, similar to War Elephants. They were also mentioned by an Ancient Greek called Ctesias.
The documents were misinterpreted, hence the myth of unicorns was born. When in reality, they were actually Indian Rhinos.
