Greece – Ancient Belief?
Many structures, doors, windowsills and church domes are painted kyanos, especially in the cyclades islands. Why did people believe that this particular colour would keep evil at bay?
IT is a simple process..sandra….the idea was that the cayan colour, was associated with light…meaning LIFE..
and life was god……and his word..
any thing darker in colour or even red..as red meant ..WAR.. AND THE FORMER DEATH..an association with the devil…(that’s me)…lol
EVEN the ancient building codes of a simply athenian house had an antrim..where the light would come in to the house and more importaly the gods blessed the house ..being in contact with them in direct light…
DONT FORGET THE NAME ..ELINNAS..comes from two words…. light and stone…….stone being the word used by the ancient greeks for metroite..as they belived gods traveleld on those.and left a trail of light.. and the ancient greeks as you see in ancient mythology ..associate them selfs as direct ,,decedents of the gods… hence the word …..ELINAS..
Sky blue (cyan.) Lovely colour, interesting question. ‘Food for thought.’
