According to Federico Gonzalez, who has studied the cosmic relations of pre-Columbian American cultures, for traditional and primitive symbol is (and all expression or manifestation, either macro or microcosmic, is symbolic) a real signal that occurs within a set of equally vivid characters that intertwine and relate to each other through the plurality of meanings, forming a code language or revealing proprietary encryption and also cohere with the community in which they arise . This is because both the symbol and myth and ritual are the bridge between sensible reality, visible and knowable to the naked eye and the mystery of his true and hidden nature is its origin.
archaic and traditional peoples have used primarily the symbol as a means of communication, establishing a perpetual relationship between the sign itself and the thing symbolized. All knowledge is expressed symbolically as sacred symbols manifest, so real and true, the energies they represent and which are mediators. The symbol is magic under the analogy that ties indestructible (and identifies) with that which is symbolized. These symbols are extremely important and sacred magic figures geometric, archaic that every society has known and with whom he has symbolized the cosmos. Canary
symbolic representations of the cosmic form are still present in various rituals, ceremonies and concepts, and are in perfect correspondence with other worldviews, living and dead, who synthesized with these symbols his philosophy and worldview.
little obsession is so obvious to symbolize and bring together all the fundamental ideas of religion, of dividing all things as the solstice points and / or the bottom up. A rock carving is a sacred as is the cosmos.
