IT IS THE SYMBOL OF THE WORLDEMPIRE, WHICH COMPRISED ALL CONTINENTS.

>What [ITS] its origin? (pic is some Persian ruin I think)

IT IS A STYLIZED DEPICTION OF A PLASMA "PERATT" COLUMN.

OLDER AND SIMPLER VARIATIONS OF THIS DESIGN HAVE ALSO BEEN FOUND ALL OVER THE WORLD; THESE OLDER AND SIMPLER DEPICTIONS RESEMBLE A STANDING "STICKFIGURE"; QUOD VIDE: ATTACHED IMAGE.

>What is the meaning behind it?

THE FIGURE REPRESENTS THE PLASMA "PERATT" COLUMN WHICH MANIFESTED IN THE NORTH POLE MILLENNIA AGO, WHEN SATURN WAS POSITIONED ABOVE THE CENTER OF THE WORLD; THE SYMBOL REPRESENTS THE TOTALIZING COMPREHENSION OF THE IMPERIAL CIVILIZATION —VISIBLE TO ALL, SEEING ALL, COMPRISING ALL.

It was a Byzantine emblem around the 10th century that Slavs, Muslims and Westerners copied. Byzantium was the greatest cultural power of the Christian world so it made sense for other Christians to emulate them, while some Muslims adopted it after the Seljuk conquest of Anatolia. Pic related is in Ethiopia. The one you posted is from Bulgaria.

There are also Hittite and Indian versions, but I don't think they're related. A multi-headed animal is just one of those things that people will come up with in pretty much any culture.

The double-headed eagle was a symbol used by the Achaemenid Persians. The reason you see it everywhere is that succeeding Islamic rulers and dynasts often identified with Persia as a source of legitimacy so they borrowed artistic motifs such as this guy

It is sad to see that this is the typical reaction of anyone in /his/ in the face of something that they can't fit into the little notional boxes that have been instilled in them since childhood.

Is this the level of discourse that you want? Pathetic.

>implying the holy roman roman had an original symbol

It the double headed eagle of Byzantine empire
>>
this is easy

the eagle and its like are apex preditors and generaly thought of as magestic in most socioties that have them, making them a very natural choice as a symbol for the uper class of socioty

the doule headed figure, looking foreward and back, embodying some kind of dualism or totality, is an easy metaphor most socioties develop

put both togethor and we get double headed birds of prey

also figure in the prominent use of them in central asia, which can be naturaly transmitted to the mediternian and europe and to russia and central asia

not much of a conspiracy

pic example.....its called geometry and asthetics

this is a simple and satisfying arangment of basic elements......its imposible not to arive at it independantly becuase geometry and at lease some basics of asthetics are universal
>>
>>1651253

Yeah just how the cosmos arose from a random explosion of energy, stars, and planets, coagulated out of "star dust", and life on earth spontaneously rose from chemicals bonding together just because, am I right?

Reddit might suit you better, reductionist piece of shit. There you'll find other mental cripples like yourself with whom to bond.
>>
>>1651282
its not reductionist...math and geometry and universal constants....every culture figures out the same shapes and basic patterns becuase geometry

this is why everyone figured out pyramids too....its a basic strong shape

the pic annon posted whos an incredibly simple drawing, its not at all imposible to imagine multiple people independantly ariving at the same drawing becuase its so fucking simple
