Signs & Symbols by Dk

From ancient hieroglyphs to modern-day graffiti, this book lets you discover the secrets, origins and meanings of over 2,000 signs and symbols. It lets you find out why a flag at half-mast is a symbol of mourning, why a heart pierced by an arrow is a symbol of love and the ancient roots of fertility symbols.
