The Symbols of Israel
The Heraldry of Israel

The following table contains fact, and not-so fact. I have been compiling this table for many years. I'm afraid that some of the references have been lost. Anything in parentheses is not sure information. However, the Signs of the Zodiac were found in Joseph Seiss' "Gospel in the Stars." The Emblems were taken from E.Raymond Capt's, "Missing Links Discovered in Assyrian Tablets." As for the other listings, I have come across lists that don't agree with each other. I even have one list of Zodiac signs that don't agree. So what's new, huh? I'm not really tryng for absolute Truth here, anyway. I think it should be known that these kinds of things even exist. I leave the reader to do the "deep" research. You might want to look at the heraldy of the United States in a little more detail as it applies to the Great Seal.
