Symbolism, ritual and folklore a collection of old Australian axes a collection of old Australian axes At least since the axes Neolithic and refined late (battle-axes, taxes, etc) had a religious significance as well and probably indicated the exalté statute of their owner. Certain types almost never show traces of use; the deposits of unshafted of the blades of axe of the average Neolithic era (such as Somerset bubble in Great Britain) could have been of the gifts to the gods.

In Minoan Crete, the double axe (labrys) had a special significance. The double axes go up with the Neolithic era as well. In 1998, a double axe, supplements with a haft thoroughly embellished, was found in the cham-Eslen, canton of Zug, Switzerland. The haft was 120 centimetres length and wrapped in ornamented birch-to bark. The blade of axe is 17.4 centimetres length and made in antigorite, extracted in the Gotthard-sector. The haft passes by a borehole biconical and is attached by holds of tine and the birch-tar. It belongs to the culture early of Cortaillod. In the symbol of ETA, the axe symbolizes the force.

In the symbol of ETA, the axe symbolizes the force. In the Roman fasces, the axe symbolized the authority to be carried out and was often used like symbols for fascistic Italy under Mussolini. In the folklore, one sometimes thought that are thunderbolts and was used axes hones some to keep buildings against the lightning, while it it was believed (mythically) that the lightning never twice did not run up against the same place. This caused it through distributions of axe. The steel axes were important in the superstition as well.

A thrown axe could retain a hailstorm, sometimes an axe was placed in harvests, with the edge with the skies to protect the harvest against the bad weather. A right axe buried under the sill of a house would retain of the witches, whereas an axe under the bed would ensure the male offspring. The Basques and the Australian ones developed alternatives of the rural sports which perpetuate the traditions of the cutting of notation with the axe. The alternatives Basques, duplicating the notations horizontally or vertically laid out, are called génériquement the aizkolaritza (will aizkora: chop).
