Meandros design is a decorative border constructed from a continuous line, shaped into a repeated motif. Such a design is also called the Greek fret or Greek key design, although these are modern designations. On the one hand, the name “meander” recalls the twisting and turning path of the Meander River in Asia Minor, and on the other hand, as Karl Kerenyi pointed out, “the meander is the figure of a labyrinth in linear form” the meaning is that there is no beginning and no end in some cases so it becomes the symbol of long life and eternity.
Silver Circle of Life Necklace
Necklace inspired by the ancient spiral symbol. Such a design is also called the circle of life design. The spiral is one of the oldest symbols of human spirituality, carved or painted into rocks from thousands of years ago. Symbol of movement and progressive development, growth, expansion, cosmic energy, symbol of the sun. Spirals have been found in burial sites, in vases, in jewelry, clothing, weapons… They can be seen in every aspect of nature, like the tides in the oceans, the winds, the plants, and the shells. The spiral phenomenon has been explained through mathematics from the time of Archimedes, the great Greek mathematician.

History
The Phaistos Disc is a disk of fired clay from the Minoan palace of Phaistos on the island of Crete. Now, the island of Crete is part of modern Greece. The disc was discovered in 1908 by the Italian archaeologist Luigi Pernier in the Minoan palace-site of Phaistos. While it is not clear that it is a script, most attempted decipherments assume that it is; most additionally assume a syllabary, others an alphabet or logography or a calendar.
In Greek mythology, the Minotaur is a mythical creature portrayed in Classical times with the head and tail of a bull and the body of a man. He dwelt at the center of the Labyrinth, which was an elaborate maze-like construction designed by the architect Daedalus and his son Icarus, on the command of King Minos of Crete. The Minotaur was eventually killed by the Athenian hero Theseus.
Labrys is, according to Plutarch, Minoan word for the double headed axe called in Greek πέλεκυς (pélekus). In ancient Crete, the double axe was an important sacred symbol of the Minoan religion. In Crete it never accompanies male gods, but always female goddesses. It seems that it associated with the worship of Mother Earth or Great Goddess.
