A lecture by the historian and heraldist Oleh Odnorozhenko (“Historian Every Saturday” series) on the origin of heraldry. The article uses the segment on the Ukrainian trident: it is one of the simplest and oldest-rooted coats of arms — the personal emblem of Volodymyr the Great (late 10th century), adopted unchanged as the state emblem during the revival of Ukrainian statehood in the early 20th century. A source for the article on Ukrainophobia and symbols.
