Is comhartha\u00ed iad na comhartha\u00ed sn\u00edoite apotr\u00f3pach a sno\u00edodh i gadhar n\u00f3 i gcloch agus a cuireadh ar fhoirgnimh chun tubaiste a chosc.

Is fo-ghr\u00fapa iad na comhartha\u00ed sn\u00edoite apotr\u00f3pach de na siombail\u00ed cosanta<\/a> a bhaineann le foirgnimh.

Murab ionann le comhartha\u00ed p\u00e9inte\u00e1ilte, gearradh na comhartha\u00ed sn\u00edoite isteach san \u00e1bhar f\u00e9in agus d\u00e1 bhr\u00ed sin t\u00e1id ceangailte go buan leis an bhfoirgneamh.<\/p>

Sa taighde B\u00e9arla, t\u00e1 na t\u00e9arma\u00ed Apotropaic Marks agus deasghn\u00e1tha<\/span> Ritual Protection Marks tagtha isteach sa ghn\u00e1thchaint le tagairt do na comhartha\u00ed seo. Sa r\u00e9igi\u00fan Gearm\u00e1inise, labhra\u00edtear faoi Abwehrzeichen, Bannzeichen n\u00f3 Hexenzeichen.

I measc na bhfoirmeacha is coitianta t\u00e1 an Drudenfu\u00df c\u00faig-ghob, r\u00f3is\u00edn\u00ed r\u00e9alta s\u00e9-ghathach, an roth gr\u00e9ine agus patr\u00fain l\u00edne fite.

Su\u00edonn na comhartha\u00ed go sonrach ag na point\u00ed \u00edogaire den fhoirgneamh. I measc na n-\u00e1iteanna sin t\u00e1 doirse, fuinneoga, tinte\u00e1in agus b\u00edoma\u00ed d\u00edn, is \u00e9 sin gach oscailt a bhf\u00e9adfadh an olc dul isteach tr\u00edd de r\u00e9ir an tseanchreidimh. T\u00e1 an leagan amach seo ina ghn\u00e9 l\u00e1rnach de chosaint foirgnimh.<\/p>

T\u00e1 na comhartha\u00ed sn\u00edoite n\u00edos buaine n\u00e1 siombail\u00ed p\u00e9inte\u00e1ilte agus is minic a th\u00e9ann siad isteach i strucht\u00far an fhoirgnimh f\u00e9in.

Sroicheann fr\u00e9amhacha na comhartha-shocraithe apotr\u00f3pa\u00ed siar go fada. Bh\u00ed comhartha\u00ed ar fhoirgnimh chomh fada siar leis an tseanaimsir<\/span> agus leis na Me\u00e1naoiseanna a shanntar feidhm chosanta d\u00f3ibh. T\u00e1thar c\u00faramach sa taighde, \u00e1mh, \u00f3s rud \u00e9 nach f\u00e9idir gach seanchomhartha a l\u00e9irmh\u00edni\u00fa go cinnte mar chomhartha cosanta.<\/p>

Tosa\u00edonn seanchas<\/span> dl\u00fath sna Me\u00e1naoiseanna D\u00e9anacha agus go h\u00e1irithe sa nua-aois luath. \u00d3n 15\u00fa go dt\u00ed an 18\u00fa haois, bh\u00ed creideamh sa dra\u00edocht dh\u00edobh\u00e1lach agus sa chailleachtacht go forleathan san Eoraip. Sa tr\u00e9imhse sin, fuair comhartha\u00ed cosanta foirgnimh \u00e1it shocraithe sa chreideamh t\u00edre<\/span>.<\/p>

Chl\u00e1raigh tionscadail taighde Sasanacha l\u00edon m\u00f3r comhartha\u00ed sn\u00edoite a bhfuil d\u00e1ta orthu i s\u00e9ip\u00e9il, i dtithe feirme agus i sciob\u00f3il. Tagann na fionnachtana i dti\u00fachan sa 16\u00fa agus sa 17\u00fa haois, is \u00e9 sin le linn na tr\u00e9imhse is d\u00e9ine de gheilt-th\u00f3ra\u00edocht na cailleach. Meastar go bhfuil an gaol seachtrach seo suntasach.<\/p>

Sa r\u00e9igi\u00fan Gearm\u00e1inise, t\u00e1 comhartha\u00ed sn\u00edoite ar eolas \u00f3 th\u00f3g\u00e1il tithe feirme Alpach, \u00f3n Fhrancach, \u00f3n Fhoraois Dhubh agus \u00f3 thuaisceart na Gearm\u00e1ine. Faightear iad ar bh\u00edoma\u00ed doirse, ar phosta\u00ed agus ar dhoirse st\u00e1bla. Anseo freisin, t\u00e1 an bh\u00e9im ar an nua-aois luath.<\/p>

Le teacht an Enlightenment agus le titim an chreidimh sa chailleachtacht, chaill na comhartha\u00ed sn\u00edoite a bhfeidhm. San 19\u00fa haois, cuireadh iad f\u00f3s \u00f3 am go ham de bharr gn\u00e1is, ach mhaolaigh an tuiscint bhun\u00fasach. D’fhan go leor comhartha\u00ed neamhaird i strucht\u00far an fhoirgnimh.<\/p>

T\u00e1 stair na gcomhartha\u00ed sn\u00edoite ceangailte go dl\u00fath le stair an eagla agus an g\u00e1 le m\u00edni\u00fa. Bh\u00ed a mbl\u00e1th acu nuair a sh\u00edleadh go raibh \u00fadar inaitheanta ag an tubaiste.<\/p>

Tugann comhartha\u00ed a bhfuil d\u00e1ta orthu l\u00e9argas ar leith, ina sno\u00edodh bliain ag an fhoirgneoir f\u00e9in.

Grearadh comhartha\u00ed i gcoinn\u00edollacha go pr\u00edomh\u00fada i adhmad, agus is annamha a rinneadh iad i gcloch, i pl\u00e1star n\u00f3 i gcr\u00e9. Bhraith an t-\u00e1bhar ar dh\u00f3igh t\u00f3g\u00e1la an r\u00e9igi\u00fain faoi leith. Sa t\u00f3g\u00e1il adhmaid is minic\u00ed a bh\u00ed boid graf\u00e1ilte i r\u00e9im, agus sa t\u00f3g\u00e1il chloiche gearradh comhartha\u00ed isteach i mbunchomhla\u00ed doirse agus i leathanchomhla\u00ed fuinneoga.<\/p>

T\u00e1 cos an druda (Drudenfu\u00df) ar cheann de na comhartha\u00ed is m\u00f3 c\u00e1il. Is r\u00e9alta c\u00faigcheannach \u00ed, tarraingthe i l\u00edne lean\u00fanach amh\u00e1in gan briseadh.

Is coitianta na r\u00f3sanna r\u00e9altacha s\u00e9-ghathacha, a t\u00f3gadh le comp\u00e1s. F\u00e1isctear iad \u00f3 chiorcal amh\u00e1in ina ngearrtar isteach s\u00e9 stua chomhionanna, rud a chrutha\u00edonn patr\u00fan a chos\u00falacht le bl\u00e1th. Meastar go bhfuil na r\u00f3sanna seo ina gcomhartha\u00ed gr\u00e9ine freisin.<\/p>

Meastar gur giorr\u00fach\u00e1n ar an gn\u00e9 Laidineach Mhuire, Virgo Virginum, arb \u00e9 Maighdean na Maighdean \u00e9, a bh\u00ed sa d\u00e1 V f\u00e1iscithe le ch\u00e9ile.

T\u00e1 bunsmaoineamh ag na comhartha\u00ed graf\u00e1ilte gur measadh go raibh an anachain ina cumhacht ghn\u00edomhach.

Bh\u00ed s\u00e9 beartaithe go gcuirfeadh na comhartha\u00ed bac orthu \u00f3 dhul isteach.<\/p>

Bh\u00ed creideamh coitianta ann go mbeadh ar neacha d\u00edobh\u00e1lacha l\u00edne lean\u00fanach a lean\u00faint. Bh\u00ed s\u00e9 beartaithe go gcuirfeadh cos an druda, tarraingthe i l\u00edne amh\u00e1in, iad ar chos\u00e1n gan chr\u00edoch n\u00f3 go stopfa\u00ed iad \u00f3 thrasn\u00fa na tairseach. Anseo a fhaightear bun\u00fas an t\u00e9arma cos an druda, mar chosaint in aghaidh an druda, spiorad mn\u00e1 an tromlu\u00ed.<\/p>

Leanann na patr\u00fain cos\u00fail le labyrinth loighic den chine\u00e1l c\u00e9anna. Chreid daoine go mbeadh ar chailleach gach l\u00edne agus gach pointe de phatr\u00fan a rian\u00fa ceann ar cheann. Bh\u00ed s\u00e9 beartaithe go gcuirfeadh patr\u00fain choimpl\u00e9ascacha moill orthu go dt\u00ed go dtiocfadh an mhaidin agus go gcaillf\u00ed a gcumhacht.<\/p>

Meastar gur comhartha\u00ed solais a bh\u00ed sa roth gr\u00e9ine agus sa r\u00f3s r\u00e9altach. I gcreideamh na ndaoine bh\u00ed solas na gr\u00e9ine ina fhrithch\u00e9ile n\u00e1d\u00fartha ar thaibhs\u00edocht na ho\u00edche agus ar dhra\u00edocht dh\u00edobh\u00e1lach. Bh\u00ed s\u00e9 beartaithe go gceangl\u00f3dh comhartha gr\u00e9ine ar an teach an chumhacht sholasmhar sin ar an tairseach go buan.<\/p>

L\u00e9ir\u00edonn na comhartha\u00ed Cr\u00edosta\u00ed, ar n\u00f3s na croise agus giorr\u00fach\u00e1n Mhuire, an nasc dl\u00fath idir creideamh agus dra\u00edocht dhaonna. Do dhaoine na Luath-Nua-Aoise n\u00ed raibh contr\u00e1rthacht ar bith sa nasc sin. Chuir ainmneacha naomh agus patr\u00fain dhra\u00edochta lena ch\u00e9ile sa smaoineamh cosanta.<\/p>

San ioml\u00e1n, l\u00e9ir\u00edonn na comhartha\u00ed graf\u00e1ilte l\u00e9argas domhanda ina raibh an teach ina theorainn intre\u00e1ite in aghaidh saol seachtrach bagrach. Mharc\u00e1il agus dhaingnigh na comhartha\u00ed an teorainn sin ar bhealach siombalach.<\/p>

Cuireadh comhartha\u00ed ar fhuinneoga freisin, go h\u00e1irithe ag an chomhla agus ag an leathanchomhla.

Sa r\u00e9igi\u00fan tuathach, cuireadh comhartha\u00ed graf\u00e1ilte ar st\u00e1bla\u00ed agus sciob\u00f3l freisin.

De ghn\u00e1th, ba iad \u00e1itritheoir\u00ed an t\u00ed f\u00e9in n\u00f3 si\u00fain\u00e9ir a rinne an obair. N\u00ed raibh g\u00e1 le coisreacan<\/span> faoi leith. Cuireadh an t-eolas faoi na comhartha\u00ed cearta ar aghaidh \u00f3 bh\u00e9al agus tr\u00ed aithris.<\/p>

T\u00e1 paidreacha n\u00f3 d\u00e1nta a ghabhadh leo tuairiscithe, ach n\u00edl siad deimhnithe do gach c\u00e1s. In \u00e1iteanna go leor bh\u00ed cur an chomhartha f\u00e9in go leor.

Is suntasach an dl\u00fas comhartha\u00ed graf\u00e1ilte timpeall siml\u00e9ir agus tinte\u00e1n. Chonaic scol\u00e1ir\u00ed Sasanacha go raibh na comhartha\u00ed go minic go d\u00edreach san \u00e1it a chruthaigh an siml\u00e9ar nasc oscailte leis an saol seachtrach.<\/p>

Sa r\u00e9igi\u00fan Alpach, iompra\u00edonn tithe feirme rotha\u00ed gr\u00e9ine agus r\u00f3sanna snoite ar bh\u00edoma\u00ed dorais agus binn.

T\u00e1 an t-aistri\u00fa idir maisi\u00fa agus comhartha cosanta sreabhach anseo.<\/p>

I dTuaisceart na Gearm\u00e1ine agus i Lochlainn, faightear comhartha\u00ed rite ar dhoirse st\u00e1bla agus ar bh\u00edoma\u00ed t\u00ed, go minic in \u00e9ineacht le foirmeacha at\u00e1 cos\u00fail le r\u00fain.

T\u00e1 gaol dl\u00fath acu leis na comhartha\u00ed coisc p\u00e9inte\u00e1ilte, mar shampla na Hex Signs<\/a> na Pennsylvania Dutch.

Ar an gcaoi sin, ceangla\u00edtear an comhartha rite le fine leathan de shiombail\u00ed cosanta t\u00f3g\u00e1la.<\/p>

Baineann siad freisin le ruda\u00ed a chuirtear i mballa\u00ed agus tairseacha, mar bhr\u00f3ga i bhfolach n\u00f3 buid\u00e9al cailleach.

In ainneoin na \u00e9ags\u00falachta r\u00e9igi\u00fana\u00ed, feictear patr\u00fan coiteann. B\u00edonn na comhartha\u00ed i l\u00e1thair ag oscailt\u00ed i ngach \u00e1it, ceangla\u00edonn siad m\u00f3it\u00edfeanna solais, r\u00e9alta agus l\u00edne i ngach \u00e1it, agus fite fuaite le ch\u00e9ile t\u00e1 tuiscint\u00ed Cr\u00edosta\u00ed agus dra\u00edocht\u00fala i ngach \u00e1it.<\/p>

Cheangail na comhartha\u00ed Cr\u00edosta\u00ed an chosaint dhra\u00edocht\u00fail le c\u00fanamh diaga.
