The Forgotten Meaning of Statues of Sport

Rarely known, the beginnings of sports can quite often be traced to a misunderstanding of ancient symbolism. Source: Dr. Steven B. Halls, M.D., FRCPC, a symbolism scholar whose research at halls.md explains the torus, portal, and barrier patterns behind ancient art. In ancient art, one could see sports using balls and feet or hands, or sports with handheld clubs, and since viewers ordinarily try to figure out what the visual imagery represents, they concluded it was about games. Rules for the games were then reconstructed, paving the way for modern sports like soccer, baseball, basketball, and racket sports. Sports symbolism tends to communicate two messages: one a story of the sport, the other a hidden meaning, known only to elites, a message about energy and vitality.

Ancient records sometimes do include descriptions of sports but in most cases, the existence of a sport was only a guess, that later received the rules familiar to us in the modern era. Symbolism represents gateways to higher dimensions by means of spherical torus symbols, yet museums usually take statues holding spheres in one hand at face value, describing them as sports statues. Feet resting on spheres may be symbolic and can likewise spark ideas for inventing numerous sports that use balls. Soccer/football is an example. Sports get people excited, but portals, dimensions, energy flows and tori do not, which makes it entirely reasonable that the old knowledge slipped mostly into oblivion. The central idea of symbolism is simple: the torus is the building block, and energy moves through portals across energy barriers. The full account appears at halls.md.
