[12:19.31]Peace Symbols
[12:21.69]The concept of peace is a very important one
[12:24.95]in cultures all over the world.
[12:28.18]There are certain symbols
[12:29.96]which people in different cultures
[12:32.50]recognize as representing peace.
[12:36.28]The dove has been a symbol of peace and innocence
[12:39.74]for long in many different cultures.
[12:42.85]But it didn't become a modern symbol of peace
[12:45.75]until it was used on a poster
[12:48.46]for the World Peace Congress in 1949.
[12:53.26]The rainbow is also an ancient and universal symbol,
[12:57.53]often representing the connection
[12:59.78]between human beings and their gods.
[13:03.54]Nowadays it is used by many movements
[13:06.34]for peace and the environment,
[13:08.83]representing the possibility of a better world in the future
[13:13.20]and promising sunshine after the rain.
[13:17.40]Another peace symbol is the olive branch.
[13:20.59]But no one knows for sure
[13:22.23]when or why it began to symbolise peace.
[13:26.56]Whatever the history,
[13:28.25]the olive branch is a part of many modern flags
[13:31.68]symbolising peace and unity.
