Hidden Origins of the Serpent Symbol

A sweeping exploration of one of humanity's oldest and most enigmatic symbols, this volume traces the serpent's journey from prehistoric ritual to modern imagination. Through archaeology, anthropology, mythology, psychology, and cultural analysis, it uncovers the buried layers of serpent worship, the suppressed meanings hidden beneath dominant religions, and the enduring presence of serpentine imagery in folklore, architecture, language, and contemporary symbolism. Moving across continents and millennia, the book reveals how the serpent became a mirror of human identity, a vessel of memory, and a guide through the cycles of fear, transformation, and renewal. At its center coils the ouroboros, the eternal circle that closes the narrative and opens it again, inviting readers to rediscover the first spark of meaning that shaped the human symbolic mind.
