Is comhartha\u00ed daite iad na Hex Signs, den chuid is m\u00f3 ciorclach, a chuirtear ar bhalla\u00ed seachtracha sciob\u00f3l. L\u00e9ir\u00edonn siad r\u00f3s\u00f3ga r\u00e9altacha, patr\u00fain gheoim\u00e9adracha agus m\u00f3it\u00edfeanna st\u00edl\u00edochta ar n\u00f3s \u00e9in, ti\u00failip\u00ed agus cro\u00edthe. Is coitianta iad go pr\u00edomha sna ceantair thuaithe in oirdheas Pennsylvania.<\/p>

Is measc\u00e1n focal \u00e9 an t\u00e9arma Hex Sign, comhdh\u00e9anta den fhocal Gearm\u00e1nach Hexe agus an focal B\u00e9arla sign. N\u00edor th\u00e1inig an t\u00e9arma i r\u00e9im go dt\u00ed an 20\u00fa haois. Labhra\u00edodh na Pennsylvania Dutch f\u00e9in, ina gcan\u00faint de bhunadh Gearm\u00e1nach, ar Schtanne, is \u00e9 sin r\u00e9alta\u00ed, n\u00f3 ar bhl\u00e1thanna.<\/p>

\u00d3 thaobh an bh\u00e9aloidis is c\u00e1s ar leith iad na Hex Signs. Baineann siad le clann na r\u00f3s\u00f3g r\u00e9altach p\u00e9inte\u00e1ilte a fhaightear freisin i dtraidisi\u00fain th\u00f3g\u00e1la Eorpacha. Ag an am c\u00e9anna, is feinim\u00e9an ar leith iad de chuid cult\u00far inimirceach de bhunadh Gearm\u00e1nach i Meirice\u00e1 Thuaidh.<\/p>

An bhfuil na Hex Signs le tuiscint mar shiombail\u00ed cosanta<\/a> n\u00f3 mar mhaisi\u00fa amh\u00e1in, sin ceist l\u00e1rnach san taighde. L\u00e9ir\u00edonn an alt seo an d\u00e1 thaobh agus seachna\u00edonn s\u00e9 tuairim r\u00f3thapa.<\/p>

Is sliocht iad na Pennsylvania Dutch d’inimirceoir\u00ed \u00f3n bhP\u00e1latinacht, \u00f3 Renish, \u00f3 W\u00fcrttemberg, \u00f3n Alsace agus \u00f3n Eilv\u00e9is.

T\u00e1 fr\u00e9amhacha na Hex Signs sa traidisi\u00fan Eorpach den r\u00f3s\u00f3g r\u00e9altach ph\u00e9inte\u00e1ilte agus shno\u00edte. Faightear r\u00f3s\u00f3ga den s\u00f3rt sin ar thithe feirmeoir\u00ed agus ar throsc\u00e1n san Eilv\u00e9is, san Alsace agus in iardheisceart na Gearm\u00e1ine, is iad sin na r\u00e9igi\u00fain as ar th\u00e1inig na himirceoir\u00ed.<\/p>

Thug na Pennsylvania Dutch an st\u00f3r foirmeacha seo leo go Meirice\u00e1 Thuaidh. Nochtann patr\u00fain r\u00e9altacha ph\u00e9inte\u00e1ilte ansi\u00fad ar dt\u00fas ar ch\u00f3fra\u00ed, ar litreacha breithe agus ar chearamaic. N\u00edl aistri\u00fa go balla\u00ed sciob\u00f3l inaitheanta go dt\u00ed n\u00edos moille.<\/p>

Is f\u00e9idir sciob\u00f3l p\u00e9inte\u00e1ilte a fh\u00e1il in Pennsylvania \u00f3n ch\u00e9ad leath den 19\u00fa haois ar aghaidh. P\u00e9inte\u00e1ladh na comhartha\u00ed go d\u00edreach ar an bhalla adhmaid, go minic i leagan amach rialta. Th\u00e1inig leathadh m\u00f3r le f\u00e1il ar dhathanna r\u00e9amhdh\u00e9anta.<\/p>

N\u00ed raibh an t\u00e9arma Hex Sign coitianta go dt\u00ed t\u00fas an 20\u00fa haois. Ghlac scr\u00edbhneoir\u00ed taistil agus b\u00e9aloideas\u00f3ir\u00ed leis agus cheangail siad \u00e9 leis an tuairim gur cheart do na comhartha\u00ed cailleacha a ruaigeadh. Chuir an l\u00e9iri\u00fa seo dealramh l\u00e1idir ar an dearcadh poibl\u00ed.<\/p>

I dara leath den 20\u00fa haois d’fhorbra\u00edodh margadh turas\u00f3ireachta. Rinneadh Hex Signs anois freisin mar phl\u00e1it\u00edn\u00ed adhmaid ciorclach a d’fh\u00e9adfa\u00ed a chur ar bhalla\u00ed t\u00ed.

Pr\u00f3iseas cearda\u00edochta a bh\u00ed san fheisti\u00fa, gan aon tionlacan deasghn\u00e1tha.

I rith an 20\u00fa haois, th\u00e1inig an n\u00f3s chun cinn Hex Signs a chur mar phl\u00e1ta\u00ed cruinne ar theaghlaigh ch\u00f3naithe, ar bhoth\u00e1in uirlis\u00ed agus i ngaird\u00edn\u00ed tosaigh.

Laistigh de Pennsylvania t\u00e1 l\u00e1rionaid r\u00e9igi\u00fanacha ann. Meastar go bhfuil na ceantair Berks, Lehigh agus Montgomery ina l\u00e1rtalamh na sciob\u00f3il p\u00e9inte\u00e1ilte. Is ann is dl\u00faithe a mhaireann an traidisi\u00fan.<\/p>

Athra\u00edonn na m\u00f3it\u00edfeanna \u00f3 cheantar go ceantar. B’fhearr le \u00e1iteanna \u00e1irithe r\u00e9alta\u00ed g\u00e9im\u00e9adracha dochta, agus b’fhearr le \u00e1iteanna eile m\u00f3it\u00edfeanna bl\u00e1thanna agus \u00e9an daite. Tagann na difr\u00edochta\u00ed seo \u00f3 ph\u00e9int\u00e9ir\u00ed aonair agus a gceardlanna f\u00e9in.<\/p>

T\u00e1 dl\u00fathghaol acu leis na r\u00e9alta-r\u00f3s\u00f3ga Eorpacha ar thithe feirme sa Eilv\u00e9is, san Als\u00e1is agus i ndeisceart na Gearm\u00e1ine. Roinneann siad leis na Hex Signs an bunphatr\u00fan agus r\u00e9igi\u00fan d\u00fachais na n-imirceach, ach is gn\u00e1ch iad a shno\u00ed seachas a ph\u00e9inte\u00e1il.<\/p>

Bainteach freisin leis na siombail\u00ed cosantacha graf\u00e1ilte san Eoraip, a bhaineann leas freisin as r\u00e9alta-r\u00f3s\u00f3ga agus rotha\u00ed gr\u00e9ine. L\u00e9ir\u00edonn achoimre na siombail\u00ed cosantacha<\/a> an teaghlach coiteann seo foirmeacha ina gcomhth\u00e9acs.<\/p>

Sa chiall n\u00edos leithne baineann na Hex Signs le eala\u00edn bh\u00e9aloidis na Pennsylvania Dutch ina hioml\u00e1ine. \u00c1ir\u00edtear ansin c\u00f3fra\u00ed p\u00e9inte\u00e1ilte, litreacha breithe agus baiste calligrafaithe ar a dtugtar Fraktur, agus m\u00f3it\u00edfeanna ti\u00failipe ar ch\u00e9irmeach.<\/p>

Taobh amuigh de Pennsylvania, t\u00e1 na Hex Signs leathnaithe amach tr\u00ed thuras\u00f3ireacht agus imirce. Le feice\u00e1il inniu iad mar mh\u00f3it\u00edf mhaisi\u00fach\u00e1in i m\u00f3r\u00e1n codanna de Mheirice\u00e1 Thuaidh, go minic scoite \u00f3na gcomhth\u00e9acs cult\u00fartha bunaidh.<\/p>

Feinim\u00e9an gaolmhar iad na c\u00f3fra\u00ed p\u00e9inte\u00e1ilte de na Pennsylvania Dutch, ar a bhfeictear na r\u00e9alta-r\u00f3s\u00f3ga agus na m\u00f3it\u00edfeanna ti\u00failipe c\u00e9anna. \u00d3s rud \u00e9 go bhfuil go leor de na c\u00f3fra\u00ed seo d\u00e1taithe agus inaitheanta le p\u00e9int\u00e9ir faoi leith, freastala\u00edonn siad ar an taighde mar \u00e1bhar compar\u00e1ide. L\u00e9ir\u00edonn siad gur bh\u00ed st\u00f3r foirmeacha na Hex Signs beoga sa r\u00e9imse t\u00ed ag na himircigh sula raibh na sciob\u00f3il p\u00e9inte\u00e1ilte ann ar chor ar bith.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

N\u00ed f\u00e9idir an cheist an bhfuil Hex Signs ina n-earra\u00ed cosanta a fhreagairt go simpl\u00ed. N\u00ed thaca\u00edonn na foins\u00ed stairi\u00fala le feidhm chosaint\u00ed shoil\u00e9ir i Meirice\u00e1 Thuaidh. Thuig go leor de lucht an traidisi\u00fain na comhartha\u00ed mar mhaisi\u00fach\u00e1n amh\u00e1in.<\/p>

Mar sin f\u00e9in, iompra\u00edonn na foirmeacha at\u00e1 le f\u00e1il i Hex Signs br\u00ed chosanta n\u00edos sine ina gcro\u00edl\u00e1r. Ba chomhartha gr\u00e9ine agus solais \u00ed an r\u00e9altr\u00f3s i dra\u00edocht dhaonda na hEorpa, agus creidt\u00ed go raibh cumhacht chosanta aici. Fanann an oidhreacht sin sa mh\u00f3it\u00edf<\/span>.<\/p>

Sa l\u00e9irmh\u00edni\u00fa coitianta \u00f3n 20\u00fa haois, tugadh br\u00edonna cosanta agus sonais seasta do na m\u00f3it\u00edfeanna aonair. Ba chomhartha fl\u00fairse \u00e9 an r\u00e9alta ocht-rinnte, ba chomhartha sonais agus s\u00edoch\u00e1na iad an d\u00e1 cholm, agus ba chomhartha nirt \u00e9 an slabhra dair.<\/p>

Is nua den chuid is m\u00f3, \u00e1fach, na br\u00edonna sin. D’fhorbra\u00edodar i gcomhth\u00e9acs mharga\u00edocht na dt\u00e1irg\u00ed, agus rinne d\u00edolt\u00f3ir\u00ed agus scr\u00edbhneoir\u00ed taistil c\u00f3ras\u00fa orthu. N\u00ed l\u00e9ir\u00edonn siad creideamh stairi\u00fail na Pennsylvania Dutch.<\/p>

Nuair a bhronntar Hex Signs inniu mar bhrontanas sonais n\u00f3 cosanta, is tuiscint nua-aimseartha chairdi\u00fail at\u00e1 i gceist. Ceangla\u00edonn s\u00e9 an mh\u00f3it\u00edf<\/span> \u00e1lainn le dea-mh\u00e9in, gan aon \u00e9ileamh a dh\u00e9anamh ar \u00e9ifeacht iarbh\u00edr.<\/p>

Is fi\u00fa a lua, mar sin, gur eala\u00edn dh\u00fachasach iad na Hex Signs den chuid is m\u00f3. T\u00e1 br\u00ed chosanta iontu mar oidhreacht ar thraidisi\u00fan foirmeacha na hEorpa agus mar shannadh nua-aimseartha, n\u00ed mar fheidhm stairi\u00fail chruthaithe i Meirice\u00e1 Thuaidh.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Thosaigh taighde na Hex Signs go luath san 20\u00fa haois. Rinne scr\u00edbhneoir\u00ed taistil agus staraithe d\u00fachais cur s\u00edos ar na sciob\u00f3l p\u00e9inte\u00e1ilte agus chum siad an t\u00e9arma Hex Sign chomh maith leis an l\u00e9irmh\u00edni\u00fa mar chosaint in aghaidh cailleacha\u00edochta.<\/p>

Chuir ionadaithe na Pennsylvania Dutch an l\u00e9irmh\u00edni\u00fa luath sin ar leataobh go l\u00e1idir uaireanta. Chreid an fheals\u00fana\u00ed d\u00fachais agus taighdeoir Pennsylvania Dutch Alfred Shoemaker gur maisi\u00fach\u00e1n amh\u00e1in a bh\u00ed sna comhartha\u00ed, agus gur cuireadh an pisreog<\/span> orthu \u00f3 thaobh amuigh.<\/p>

Chuir taighdeoir\u00ed eile, ina measc August Mahr, b\u00e9im ar an gceangal le siombail\u00ed gr\u00e9ine na hEorpa agus mheas siad go raibh br\u00ed chosanta n\u00edos sine sochreidte. Coinn\u00edonn an t-easaontas sin taighde na linne seo.<\/p>

T\u00e1 staid na bhfoins\u00ed deacair mar go bhfuil fianaise scr\u00edofa \u00f3 th\u00fas na sciob\u00f3l p\u00e9inte\u00e1ilte gann. N\u00ed f\u00e9idir cuid mh\u00f3r a thuiscint ach \u00f3 eala\u00edn dh\u00fachasach, \u00f3 r\u00e1itis \u00f3 bh\u00e9al agus \u00f3 chompar\u00e1id leis an Eoraip.<\/p>

Ar leibh\u00e9al na compar\u00e1ide Eorpa\u00ed, cuireann an Handw\u00f6rterbuch des deutschen Aberglaubens \u00e1bhar ar f\u00e1il maidir leis an r\u00e9altr\u00f3s agus roth na gr\u00e9ine mar chomhartha\u00ed cosanta. Taca\u00edonn s\u00e9 leis an tuairim go bhfuil br\u00ed chosanta \u00e1rsa ag an mh\u00f3it\u00edf.<\/p>

L\u00e9ir\u00edonn stair an taighde gur sampla foghlama iad na Hex Signs maidir leis an ch\u00faram is g\u00e1 a ghlacadh le foins\u00ed. Is f\u00e9idir le l\u00e9irmh\u00edni\u00fa tarraingteach, mar shampla an chosaint in aghaidh cailleacha\u00edochta anseo, dul ar a bh\u00f3thar f\u00e9in gan a bheith cinnte \u00f3 thaobh na staire.<\/p>

Chuir s\u00e9 leis an deacracht go raibh Pennsylvania Dutch beagnach gan a gcan\u00faint a scr\u00edobh, agus gur go mall a tosa\u00edodh ar ini\u00fachta\u00ed d\u00fachasacha. Rinneadh taifead ar r\u00e1itis na sean-\u00fain\u00e9ir\u00ed sciob\u00f3il den chuid is m\u00f3 san 20\u00fa haois, is \u00e9 sin le r\u00e1 tr\u00e1th a bh\u00ed an l\u00e9irmh\u00edni\u00fa turas\u00f3ireachta ag imshu\u00ed cheana f\u00e9in.

Sainmharc aitheanta de r\u00e9igi\u00fan na Pennsylvania Dutch iad na Hex Signs inniu. Feictear iad ar chuimhneach\u00e1in, i bhf\u00f3gra\u00edocht turas\u00f3ireachta agus mar mhaisi\u00fach\u00e1n ar thithe agus ar shiopa\u00ed i bhfad taobh amuigh d\u00e1 gcriosl\u00e1r f\u00e9in.<\/p>

D\u00e9anann roinnt gn\u00f3lachta\u00ed clainne i Pennsylvania Hex Signs de l\u00e1mh agus d\u00edolann siad iad mar eala\u00edn dh\u00fachasach. Cotha\u00edonn siad traidisi\u00fan beoga leis sin, agus sol\u00e1thra\u00edonn siad ag an am c\u00e9anna do lucht \u00e9isteachta n\u00e1isi\u00fanta agus idirn\u00e1isi\u00fanta.<\/p>

Sa l\u00e9irmh\u00edni\u00fa coitianta, meastar Hex Signs inniu den chuid is m\u00f3 mar bhrontanais\u00ed sonais agus cosanta. Sanntar br\u00ed ar leith d’each mh\u00f3it\u00edf<\/span> i leabhr\u00e1in thionlacain, mar shampla gr\u00e1, sl\u00e1inte n\u00f3 rath\u00fanas. T\u00e1 na sannta seo cairdi\u00fail \u00f3 cheart, ach is nua iad \u00f3 thaobh na staire.<\/p>

Tugann m\u00fasaeim i Pennsylvania ranna ar leith do na Hex Signs, agus cuireann siad an eala\u00edn dh\u00fachasach chomh maith leis an d\u00edosp\u00f3ireacht taighde faoina mbr\u00ed in i\u00fal. Cuid\u00edonn siad leis sin le l\u00e9argas ilghn\u00e9itheach.<\/p>

San esotericism<\/span>, d\u00edoltar Hex Signs \u00f3 am go ch\u00e9ile mar chomhartha\u00ed cosanta t\u00ed. Gheobhaidh an duine ar mian leis an comhth\u00e9acs stairi\u00fail a lorg eolas iontaofa i l\u00e9irithe d\u00fachasacha agus in achoimre na gcomhartha\u00ed cosanta<\/a>.<\/p>

Ceangla\u00edonn an l\u00e9amh comhaimseartha seo tr\u00ed leibh\u00e9al, mar sin. Is eala\u00edn dh\u00fachasach bheoga iad na Hex Signs, sainmharc turas\u00f3ireachta, agus \u00e1bhar d\u00edosp\u00f3ireachta taighde at\u00e1 f\u00f3s oscailte faoina mbunbhr\u00ed bhun\u00fasach.<\/p>

Le d\u00e9ana\u00ed, ghlac taighde d\u00fachais critici\u00fail na Pennsylvania Dutch leis an \u00e1bhar seo freisin. Cuireann s\u00e9 b\u00e9im air gur cuid iad na Hex Signs d’oidhreacht rachmasach eala\u00edne d\u00fachasa\u00ed agus n\u00e1r ch\u00f3ir iad a ch\u00fang\u00fa s\u00edos go fr\u00e1sa na cosanta in aghaidh cailleacha\u00edochta amh\u00e1in.
