Glass Heart

There are several versions of where the heart symbol came from. Lovers often give each other valentines, chocolate, pillows, and other souvenirs in the shape of hearts. But few people know where this symbol of love came from.
Similar to the heart of the picture was found on pottery about 3 thousand years BC in Greece and Rome.
These were images of ivy leaves, which in shape resembled the modern symbol of the heart. Ivy in Greece was used to make wreaths and decorate the head on holidays in honor of the god of wine Dionysus. In Italy, in the 4th century BC, ivy was associated with the continuation of the family, its branches were given to newlyweds.

As well as two swans, who, bending their necks to each other, graphically create a symbol of love. Pairs of these noble birds have long been a symbol of loyalty.
Studying the origin of Valentine’s Day, scientists have concluded that the heart is a stylized image of the buttocks. Thus, the Greeks, great connoisseurs of the female body, graphically conveyed the perfect hips of the goddess of love Aphrodite. Then the modified image was borrowed by Catholic Europe.
