Examples

Another symbol was a Pile of Bricks, referring to the building of the first city and the fratricidal brothersthe Romulus and Remus of Roman legend; although thus with a very different character from that generally assigned to our Heavenly Twins. Similarly Sayce says that the Sumerian name for the month May-June, when the sun was in Gemini, signified "Bricks" (?).”
“‘Today I seek Gemini,’ he said. ‘The Heavenly Twins.’”
