In my mind, I am still here with all the will of peace to let us go on and think.
Both, the olive and the stone are old friends.

Esfera Armilar
An armillary sphere (variations are known as spherical astrolabe, armilla, or armil) is a model of objects in the sky (on the celestial sphere), consisting of a spherical framework of rings, centred on Earth or the Sun, that represent lines of celestial longitude and latitude and other astronomically important features, such as the ecliptic. As such, it differs from a celestial globe, which is a smooth sphere whose principal purpose is to map the constellations. It was invented separately in ancient Greece and ancient China, with later use in the Islamic world and Medieval Europe.

Pelourinho, is a stone column placed in a public place in a city or town where criminals were punished and exposed. The big donataries, the bishops, the cabidos and the monasteries were also entitled to pillory, as evidence and instrument of feudal jurisdiction. The pillories were, at least since the end of the 15th century, considered the standard or symbol of municipal freedom. Or the pillory is a derivation, from very old customs, of the erection in the cities of the ius italicum of the statues of Marsias or Sileno, symbols of the municipal liberties, other historians refer to Columna or Columna Roman Moenia, an upright post in a public square in which sentenced persons were exposed to the people's mockery.
