Let's say you found an ancient sacrifice - tomb site. Let's say the site has a stone carved hand within the had is an alter. Directly to the left of this is a stone tumb. On this stone tumb there are two Omega symbols carved in stone.
Let's say all of this is found within the mouth right at the throat area of a stone carved Jaguar- lion.
Now imo the Jaguar would represent be symbolic of the unity worshipped. The hand holding the sacrifice alter imo would be symbolic of a gift - sacrifice given to that God - person who more than likely is within the tumb. Now my questian is and the reason for this post is WHY the OMEGA SYMBOL which I understand means the end so being on a tumb is understandable. But WHY TWO Omega symbols side by side ?
 

Got a picture, too many lets says and imo for me, heck I do not even know what imo means.

So why not a picture because after all this is the what is it forum.

Was also thinking one symbol for the person worshiped one symbol for the people sacrificed. But I dont think they would have gave that must significance to the people sacrificed. Maybe a king and queen or emperor and queen or a pair of God figures

I found this on the ancient Sumerian Omega symbol if you notice in the Sumerian carving there are two Omega symbols one in each of the two peoples hands. The omega symbol is one of the oldest known symbols but again this shows the use of two symbols but still no why ��Screenshot_20181125-162236_Chrome.jpg

I don't know if this information will help you in your quest... but I did some research on the Omega symbol last year after I found the black glass button below on an old homestead site. :thumbsup:

"In Christianity Alpha (Α) and Omega (Ω) are the first and last letters, respectively, of the classical Greek alphabet. Thus, twice when the phrase "I am the alpha and the omega" appears it is further clarified with the additional phrase, "the beginning and the end" (Revelation 21:6, 22:13). The first and last letters of the Greek alphabet were used because the book of Revelation is in the New Testament, which was originally written in Greek.

The letters Alpha and Omega in juxtaposition are often used as a Christian visual symbol. The symbols were used in early Christianity and appear in the Roman catacombs. The letters were shown hanging from the arms of the cross in Early Christian art, and some crux gemmata, jeweled crosses in precious metal, have formed letters hanging in this way, called pendilia; for example, in the Asturian coat of arms, which is based upon the Asturian Victory Cross. In fact, despite always being in Greek, the letters became more common in Western than Eastern Orthodox Christian art. They are often shown to the left and right of Christ's head, sometimes within his halo, where they take the place of the Christogram used in Orthodox art".

Have you considered reaching out to the author of that page.

Or try this site.

https://cdli.ucla.edu/

Then of course you could try the Berlin Museum library archives.
