These symbols took them from reality and describe what they served to represent the object itself and the word that contained his name, although they mean different things. The Egyptians, with this symbolism, wrote names or ideas that they had no graphical representation for themselves. The dung beetle was to the Egyptians representing the sun god himself at mold beetle dung-ball, which then used to lay their eggs. It points out the fact that his progeny from inside that ball, came to mean to the Egyptians, in fact, this idea of cyclical life, civilization prone to symbolic interpretations.

They have been incorporated into our daily lives as part of it naturally. Maybe for that reason, because they have been with us for more than a century. They are the modern inventions of the 19th century. This is the case of the stapler, the electric toothbrush, the traffic light, the Dow Jones, the dishwasher, the traveller’s checks or the contact lenses or contact lenses, for some examples. They make our lives easier and, in some cases, they made it to our grandparents’ grandparents. We collect the most modern inventions of the 19th century. Although it seems somewhat implausible, we will see that at that time they were invented… The Dow Jones invention Present in the current economic information, the Dow Jones is known as the «Daily Stock Market Index», which was inspired by the statistical calculation invented in 1882 by Charles Henry Dow and Edward D. Jones, the first…

The true story of Queen Elizabeth of France However, the historical reality of this character has little to do with the story the film tells. The princess, for example, could never meet William Wallace, because she did not arrive in England until 1308, when she was only twelve years old, three years after Wallace was executed, and she also did not meet her father-in-law (her great nemesis in the film) He married Eduardo II when his father had already died.

Vinci, Italy 1452 – Amboise, France 1519 Da Vinci’s talent was forged around the artistic movement known as the Renaissance, perhaps contributing directly to the history of Art and knowledge advancing faster and with more certainty. The Renaissance meant leaving behind the obscurantism of the Middle Ages, the return to the classical model of Greece and Rome to reach the modern consciousness of a more splendid new time. Da Vinci was the son of a peasant and a wealthy notary, who fulfilled a family tradition dating back three generations. Freud’s studies on Leonardo…

In this article we will know the meaning of the pirate flag and all types of pirate flags that have existed in History The mere mention of «the word PIRATES» froze the blood in the veins of any person who had made sea travel their livelihood during the Modern Age. Travelers, merchants and sailors knew that, no matter how well equipped and defended their ships were, an attack by the experienced pirates was likely to end horribly for them. And when they were on the high seas, it was the vision of a flag that indicated to them, with the certainty of a jug of cold water, that they were about to meet face to face with one of their worst nightmares.

What is code B? This is how Code B works The mathematician of Israeli origin Eliyahu Rips, in the mid-1990s, aided by a computer program, made public a bewildering discovery that was hidden behind the sacred text: he found in it coded words that offered messages with a much lower level of probability than those that could be found by chance. That is, he managed to unravel the supposed secret code that the Bible hides and that has been sought since ancient times. In 1997, journalist Michel Drosnin wrote the bestseller «The Secret Code of the Bible» with which he made known worldwide the key messages that the future seemed to hold for humanity. For both Rips and Drosnin, the text, the Old Testament, with more than three thousand years old, contained messages of events that had already been fulfilled, that were being fulfilled and that would come to happen.…

Napoleón: buried in six concentric coffins and mutilated. This is how Napoleon lies, without a penis, among other things, in the Invalids of Paris. Mutilated Parts of your intestine or your teeth passed through auction rooms, or direct and private sales. Napoleon has written many things that are difficult to know how far the legend goes. It is said that the trees surrounding his grave, on Santa Elena Island, were arranged until they were splintered. The people were in the belief that this wood contained the essence of Napoleon. Although it might seem unlikely there was a time in this type of belief, based on superstition they were very popular. Napoleon, in his comfortable exile from Santa Elena, close to luxury, but without the emperor’s excellence, spent time playing cards.
