The antlers of the stag.

The work goes back to the dawn
of civilization. Mr. Gurdjieff was very
impressed when he visited the caves
at Lascaux in France towards the end
of his life. He knew he was seeing signs
of a school. He said of one image that
the antlers of the stag signified of an
enlightened man, a symbol the of
attaining being.

Many cultures place
something on or around the head to signify
a developed soul. Halos, Caps, cones,
horns, symbols of the third eye.
