(Before It's News)

This symbol represents a real mystery: in fact it appears in very different places and times. Its meaning is a mystery. Some researchers believe that it is a “ritual course”, confining it to the religious-mystic field. Other say it may represent a human brain. But nobody of them is able to give an explanation about its so great diffusion in the world and in times so distant among them. Now let’s see a brief list of the places in which the labyrinth was found:

  • Nice post. Again makes one wonder how things like this spread in the ancient world without any kind of worldwide communication.
