Cultural context
Read specific symbolic uses without turning a motif into a universal definition or an unsupported personal claim.
A connected reading path.
Context tells a reader what a reference can and cannot establish. These guides distinguish a museum-recorded interpretation, a religious use, and an astrology notation system from the visual shapes used to represent them. They keep observations separate from attributed beliefs and discourage claims based only on resemblance. A careful map makes room for differences between examples rather than compressing them into one sweeping caption.
