An Illustrated Encyclopaedia of Traditional Symbols
« on: May 13, 2007, 11:55:01 PM »
A great reference book on all kinds of symbols, reads much like a symbol dictionary. Doesn't really go in depth in explaining the meaning of symbols it just gives short to the point definitions, but covers many cultures and numerous different symbols.
