In General the three (vertical) mythological schemes of the universe R. are the main zoomorphic classifier lower outer zones and contrasted with the birds as the classifier of the upper zone, and (less clearly) large animals (often ungulates), representing the average space area. On the basis of image R. from the gorges d Enfer (Dordogne) you can conclude that the desire to put such images at the bottom (over R. the image is sometimes interpreted as the head of the bird). In the works of the so-called mobile art of the Paleolithic the most frequent subject (on the rods with the holes) is represented by R. in the form of a phallus. A continuation of this aspect of the "fish" theme are the so-called stone fish from Neolithic settlements and burials of Siberia (they correspond to the later figures R. used as bait and fishing magic means in magic; cf. also Siberian petroglyphs R. that, for example, Khanty, and indicate the direction of movement R. The biblical symbolism of the "fish" images in medieval Western sculpture — to a certain extent only a transformation of archaic stone R. R. Demiurgic function is manifested in two variants — active, when R. brings from the bottom of the primordial ocean ooze, from which the earth is created, and passive, when R. (the whale, three whale, Dolphin, etc.) is the backbone of the earth. More or less similar versions are recorded in Buryatia, Altai inhabitants, the Ainu, the Japanese and other peoples of Eurasia. Perhaps the motive R. as the pillar of the earth in the ocean is associated primarily with Indian beliefs about the mountain world in the middle of the ocean, affecting, in particular, on the Central Asian tradition. In those cosmogonic versions, where the ocean embraces the whole universe, the sun circles the earth at the top of the solar boat at the bottom on the river, serving as mount solar deity. Reduced variant's influence on R. the function is found in the legends and myths of the deluge, in which R. is the Savior of life, for example in the Indian tradition. In the area of distribution of myths and legends about the flood and particularly on its periphery (Syria, Palestine, Asia Minor, Transcaucasia, Iran, etc.) are well preserved traces of "fish" mythology and worship of R.

Sometimes R. actualizes the image of a water monster that steals woman and makes her his wife. Among the other fantastic hybrid of ancient Indian R. Makar, most directly associated with fertility, or the whangdoodle (miracle sea) of Russian fairy tales, often possessing the features and properties R.; in the mythological representations of the monster fish as nature is usually a whale. There is a popular belief about p. different species as the ancestors of the people and therefore a "Fish" (... ??? ...)

Пишем грезы, мечты, в смятении, Говорим, что любовь, что ложь. Мы певцы от рождения немы, И глазами мы видим суть. Повороты ,изгибы время, И величие жизни ртуть. Что летуча, непостоянна, Что сверкает сама в себе, И алмазом горит желанным, Отразить красоту небес.. Pollin 14.02.2015
