Rigden: Certainly. Yet, humans always remain humans. Even when they come to
possess the Knowledge about themselves and the significance of signs and symbols, in
time they tend to distort those, to add something, to complicate at their own discretion.
As a result, what one generation of people knew at the beginning of a century and the

the word “symbol” itself which is currently widely used by the Russian-speaking
population in everyday life. This word has been adopted from the Greek language. At
that, how did it appear in Ancient Greece?
In Ancient Greece, there existed such a word as “shma” meaning “a sign”, “a banner”,
“a heavenly sign”. It should be mentioned that ancient cultures of the Aegean region (as
long ago as before Greece appeared), particularly after those nations had got into contact
with oriental peoples (for instance, with inhabitants of с жителями Anatolia (currently
