Very tasteful..tnx
One hypothesis is it is Neptune's trident or Poseidons trident.
Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦🦾
Don, Danube, Dnister and Dnipro, all derivatives of Danylo and were the original realm of our lands. The trident in my opinion is derived from this. I had the A blue yellow and Hutsul coloured Trident woven by my grandmother on my wall since a child.
Thanks for sharing this information, here’s an 🍎 for you, it’s just a pity that it’s not real……….
May the trident be the proud symbol of Ukraine for another thousand years and more.
So beautifully said
I like the Ukrainian Trident much. As well as the Ukrainian Flag. But, even if I'm suspect...because I love Ukraine since long, we all have to agree at least on the fact that it's undeniable that the UA Tridend is a awesome very stylish symbol; It immediately transports our imaginary to the ancient mythological legends (..).
Perfect match also for today's Ukrainian so heroic patriotic People, noble Nation.
🇺🇦🔱✌✌
@@PatriciaSantos-qt9lw in the earlier forms you can see the ''runic connection'' on the design... after all, it comes from the Swedish Viking King Rurik first ruler of the Kievan Rus, just so you know, ''Rus Vikings'' in old Skadinavian means ''Rowing'' [rus] ''Raiders'' [vikings]
Agree - but let's not name a date, that could bring bad luck (cf. a certain "1000-year Reich"!) - let's say "for eternity"! 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦 Слава Україні! 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
@@AnnafromUkrainewhy don't you fight in the Ukranian military?
Ambassador Anna from Ukraine! Keep up the good work.
In America we have the bald eagle since it was officially adopted in 1787. I really admire the Ukrainian Trident. It even looks like a bird in a sense. An emblem of courage and strength.
Beautiful and meaningful
It does look like a stylized plunging peregrine falcon, the fastest animal on Earth.
Hej, sokoły!
It was the correct guess. One of the Trident meaning is an attacking falcon. BTW There is a trident-falcon on the wall in Vatican that depicts Ukraine-Rus symbolics, moreover in old times in pagan religions and early christianity such bird means a soul.
It's not a "Trident". It's a Peregrin falcon diving for prey. Eagles and falcons were symbols of power in the Middle Ages, and therefore used on almost every single military patch, family symbol for prince and kings. Anna is wrong.
"Ukraine is not limited to war, there are many important and beautiful things..." and Anna is one of them!
I always wondered about the history of the Ukraine Trident. Thank you for sharing. Slava Ukraini!
Glory to Heroes.
Great history. Now I need to get a shirt with that symbol on it! 🇺🇦
The trident symbol is minimum 2300 years old. The Nazis stole it and used it as a symbol of their ideology.
It is nowadays banned in Sweden but those using it outside Sweden is somehow saluted even with the knowledge that they got it from the Nazis.
I don't want Ucraine to lose the war but it is actually a country that strictly follow the German 1940 ideology.
@@AnnafromUkraineThe trident was the symbol of Neptune’s wrath. He used it to shake the land of cities by the seas that offended him. That’s why it was used in pre-Christian Ukraine. The people of Constantinople would immediately recognize what it meant. It was the symbol of destruction coming from the sea to them.
It is the same reason the submarine-launched nuclear missiles are the Trident and Trident II missiles. If Putin is stupid enough to use a nuclear weapon, it will be a Trident II that wipes Moscow off the map permanently. It is strangely fitting that a Trident will be the end of Moscow if Russia decides to use nuclear weapons, isn’t it?

It's not a "Trident". It's a Peregrin falcon diving for prey. Anna is wrong.
I love the attacking falcon origin story. You will see them soon in the form of F-16 Falcons!
This is a well made documentary about the history of Ukrainian symbol. As I watch your various series, I understand more about your beautiful country. I support Ukrainian people in their fight for freedom from tyranny from Russian invasion.
I look forward to seeing your next video Anna!
Your words mean a lot to me. Thank you for inspiring
Anna 'forgot' to say than the trizub was invented by Russian historian Karamzin at the beginning of 19th century. And it is only after a century it was chosen as a symbol by Ukrainian (and Russian!) nationalists
I only knew trident as a symbol of Poseidon, the god of sea, so I was surprised it's a national symbol of Ukraine too. Now it's firmly associated with your brave country! Slava Ukraini
I also thought Trident was related to Poseidon and I also thought the Greek and Romans might have introduced to Ukraine. Slava Ukraini
I also only knew the association to Poseidon or Neptune (same god, like so many of the Greek gods also received Latin versions.). The idea that it might also be seen as a diving falcon is also nice.
It's a really simple and striking symbol. And now the whole free world knows it symbolizes Ukraine and it's heroic fight for freedom and independence!
I love that the Moskva was sunk with two Ukranian Neptune naval missiles! Sweden sent our best naval missiles in the beginning of the full scale invasion, when Odesa was really at risk. But it feels much better that genuine Ukraine missiles sunk the Moskva!
The Russian fleet needs to go away. Preferrably sunk! It's the fleet of an evil imperialistic country.
P.S. When I was a kid, I thought it was fun to try and write Swedish words with cyrillic letters. My father told me about some letters actually sounding diffrent, so it became a little extra tricky.😅But children like such games.
I guess future tourists to Ukraine from the free world will learn to read a few words in Ukranian cyrillic script.
Thanks, been waiting for this!
In London, New York, and San Francisco, can personally testify to seeing the trident worn by all sorts of people. Others reports the same elsewhere ; Ukraines struggle has captured the heart of the civilized world.
Victory to Ukraine!
This is beautiful and very important. Thank you 🙏
I travel a lot for work, and admittedly look for anybody wearing Ukrainian symbols in the airport to pass the time. I’ve met a couple of Ukrainians that way… I also look for Ukrainian flags wherever I go. I’m always happy to see them when I do come across them!
Ukraine has certainly captured my heart.
@@chickenbiscuit4525 are you asking if I’ve seen people wearing Russian gear as I’ve traveled? If so, no, I haven’t.
You will see them in Sydney Australia as well. Lots Ukrainian expats and Australian supporters. 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🔱
You podcast is the best one on TH-cam for anyone who wants to know more about UKRAINE. You are a GREAT AMBASSADOR for your people. I am an old U.S. Marine retired after 27 years.

I love the TRIDENT 🔱 DESIGN and what it stands for it is a beautiful work of ART as Well
Anna from Ukraine is now one of the most important symbols of beautiful Ukraine!
Thank you for all you do!
I think the Greek/Roman god used tridents too - Poseidon the god of the sea!
Very interesting thank you
Yes, you are right
I have always wondered about the version of the trident used by Ukraine. It looks like a stylized bird.
Looking into the history of the place, I find that in struggles in the 17th century, the Hawk was the symbol of the zaporozhian Cossacks. More than one Ukrainian song I have read in translation, talks about the ‘hawk’ in a way that seems to mean an untamed Cossack.
If there is a connection here, can you give us any detail?
@@AnnafromUkraine yes it strikes a very maritime chord ,here on the banks of the river mersey 😊😊
With you having mentioned it now, I'm really fascinated by how much it looks like a diving falcon.
I admittedly saw that in it before I learned what it was a few months into the war. A beautiful symbol, either way.
You are such a good ambassador for Ukraine … suggesting people buy merchandise as conversation starters! That is so true! That is one way for people to learn.
It’s very much a conversation starter. I travel for work, and am always looking for people wearing the trident and other Ukrainian symbols wherever I go… So far I’ve met a couple of Ukrainians that way. I’m planning on getting some shirts with the trident on them pretty soon here to wear when I’m traveling to hopefully meet more Ukrainians and supporters of Ukraine…
I like the attacking falcon explanation. Its makes a lot of sense.
The Ukrainian Tryzub is a very strong and nice looking symbol. I like it.
Very interesting to find out how old the Ukrainian Tryzub is and that it was found on so many items.
Thank you very much for this video Anna!!
Victory, Freedom, Full Reparations, and all of Ukraine's Land for Ukraine, this includes Donbas and Crimea! 💙💛

Definitely

I have the trident on my travel wallet, made in Ukraine 🙂. When ruzzia is ended and contained, I would like to come back to Ukraine. I have friends and people i worry about there. I think it would be great therapy to help and rebuild. This must not be forgotten.
To me it's more than a Trident,it represents Ukraine...everything that is kind,beautiful,driven and it's the strength of all Ukrainians. It's a symbol of all things good...If you could only see yourselves through our eyes and heart. Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦 💙 🇺🇸
It's not a "Trident". It's a Peregrin falcon diving for prey. Eagles and falcons were symbols of power in the Middle Ages, and therefore used on almost every single military patch, family symbol for prince and kings. Anna is wrong. A "Trident" doesn't mean anything on a medieval coin

Go to study, rather than lose waste your time writing d__b questions.
The raven god hypothesis of the trident symbol is wonderful.
I have the Trident T-shirt and base ball cap and am proud of them
Thank you so much. That is one of the really effective ways to demonstrate solidarity! We are grateful for that so much!
I think the simple answer is usually true. In ancient times the Black Sea was abundant with fish and trade, so a trident seems obvious. Some ancient ruler took it as the symbol and the dynasty lasted long enough for it to stick. Since the trident can also be a weapon, it also projects strength. It may go all the way back to the ancient Greeks since they had settlements around Odessa for centuries.
Yes, the Greeks lived along the Black Sea coast for millennia. In Ukraine they traded with the Scythians for gold and other goods.
I learned about the trezub/trident in the 70’s when I studied at our parish Ukrainian schools on weekends (ugh!). Both in English and Ukrainian, the meaning translates literally as “three teeth”, like Neptune’s spear. I always loved the design, so as soon as the Orcs invaded, I had one tattooed on my wrist
Дякую! Слава Україні!

Love ya Anna...this trident is the symbol of Ukraine 🇺🇦 and on youtube Anna you are a symbol of Ukraine 🇺🇦...

Solidarity with Ukraine. Slava Ukraini
The raven theory seems plausible, the Norse definitely used that on coins and other things and it was quite stylised.
🙏🕊🌻🔱 Excellent History! Ukraine is Strong! Glory to Ukraine! Glory to the Heroes! The World Stays Committed! 🔱🌻🕊🙏
I could understand how people might see a resemblance to a trident symbol derived from the ancient fishing spear, but looking at the way tryzub is drawn, and the way it appears on old relics, it does look more like the wings and tail of a diving bird, and the oval shape pointing down at the bottom looks like the body and beak of such a bird. I could see how a medieval king could wish to compare himself to a diving falcon as a warning to potential enemies that he was a dangerous person to offend.
Glory to Ukraine from USA . America and Ukraine are friends
I support Ukraine ❤ and I love your trident ❤ keep up vlogging your very pretty as always ❤
Thank you 😊
I always assumed Trident was for spear fishing. And, it does look very cool in your stylized version.
I really enjoy your educational content, the trident will become a symbol of freedom, defiance strength and unity for years to come....Slava ukraini
Good video. Stay strong. Got a trident sticker on my back window in souport of Ukraine. It is also a reminder that world leaders should never trust Russia and its lieing leaders.
Stay strong, Ukraine.
I heard a story recently, which may be true. Dad tells son, ‘Remember, you must not lie’. Son asks ‘Isn’t there any time I can lie?” Dad answers ‘ Well, yes. You can lie if you speak in Russian.’ Son says ‘But Dad, I don’t speak Russian’. Dad replies ‘I know.’
Fascinating and very informative! The more we get to learn about Ukraine the more we appreciate the deep and long history of the land and it's people. Thank you!
My research of the symbol have lead me to a kings crown with center being a jewel.
Brilliant history lesson. I'm from the UK, and I have one tshirt with the trident, and another with the union jack and Ukrainian flag mixed into one flag. I support Ukraine from the very bottom of my heart.
I have the Trident Ukrainian flag flying now
Even there is statue of Britannia in Plymouth where Britannia is holding trident spear.

I love how you explained this. Your eloquence and confidence seem to be growing with every day that goes by. You are a highly personable diplomat for Ukraine.
Thank you for the history of the Ukranian Trident. Now I can explain it when I wear my sweatshirt with the trident on it. I wear it with pride. I also have a garden flag with the trident with Glory to Ukraine.
I voted in your poll about what viewers of your channel wanted to see more of, and I voted for History, Geography, People and honestly I don't remember what else was up for vote.
I follow several channels from Ukrainians, some serving in the AFU and some not, and I feel like I get enough of the Front Line News from them, but that I'd like to learn more about Ukraine without war. This is exactly the content I was hoping for.
Thank you Anna, for making Ukraine more accessible to all of us so far away.
Here's a proposal you may not have heard...
Your Tryzub resembles a medieval Wolf Trap, especially the modern symbol.
Often they were tall boards stuck into the ground with two deep V cuts at the top. Meat was stuck on the central higher spike. The wolf jumps up and catches his big front feet in the Vees, then hangs there until the hunter comes to collect him. The openings at the V bottoms simply help to hold his feet in. Years ago I bought a book with a medieval wolf trap illustration in it from a period woodcut that was printed. I saw the resemblance immediately. The Tryzub's higher central spike, the constricting wings and the places for his paws to lock in at the bottom.
Very neat symbol. I never have seen such illustrations or excellent explanation as yours and I looked it up on our English language internet. Publish to Wikipedia!
Thank you Anna. Slava Ukraini. Glory to Heroes.
I wear my t-shirt with the trident and the Ukrainian flag here in the UK with pride to support your country.
Anna stay safe and stay strong.
Slava Ukraini Heroyam Slava 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thank you, Anna, for that piece of history. I learned something new. Slava Ukraini from The UK!
3 has always been a very important number in many religions. Working together makes us strong. We will win this ancient war with Ukraine as the tip of the Tryzub 🔱
True.
My initial impression of the tryzub was that this was stylized rendition (Celtic-like to my eyes) of the Holy Ghost/Spirit representing the spirit of Pentecost, and that the trident aspect itself represented the Blessed Trinity. Combined with the image of a diving falcon, it seems to be to be a powerful merging of the religious with the national secular. The power of this icon cannot be ignored! It is on the Ukrainian flag that I display at home, superimposed on the traditional bi-color flag! Слава Україні! 🇺🇦
Far older is the steppe peoples' recognition of the eagle as the animal who flies highest, fathest-seeing, who is the intermediary who visits both the Great Sky, and taught a woman to speak the language of the animals, which humans had forgotten.
The tale is ancient, and more complex than i here relate, though, as you see, informs us that we had forgotten our relationship with all other life.
You might find more allegorical truth by extending beyond narrow and mistaken solipsistic myth.
Pantheists at least recognized that their pantheons represented both human mental traits and limitations, as well as physical forces.
Manichaean delusion is entirely overly simplistic, as what is "good"
- you may subtract one o if you like and still remain accurate - for one individual living organism may not be the same for another.
Hi Anna - apart from anything else, the Ukrainian Тризуб just looks very attractive, it's a great and inspiring piece of symbolism! 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦 Слава Україні! 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦

Trident, the divine trinity, purity, fairness - in the sense of justice, fierceness, strength. Power, in the sense of knowledge. Courage. High values.
Yes! I look at Ukraine's Trident and I see a Sokoly in all its majesty.
Much respect for the Ukrainian People.
Thank you for you insightful comment!
These were displayed in my Ukrainian class in Junior High School, and were on the cover of my textbook. Ukrainians in Canada proudly displayed the flag and trident crest all through the Soviet Dark Ages. We still do, and we are even more proud of them now!
Thanks for sharing your history.

Retiree in Britain. I wear Ukrainian emblems or flags habitually, and their flag has hung from my washing line since February '22. Slava Ukraine !
Very interesting history lesson Anna.
Glad you liked it
Since I became aware of the trident as the symbol of Ukraine at the beginning of the full-scale invasion, I’ve been a fan of it! I would agree that it looks very stylish, and think it is simultaneously ancient and modern. I think it fits well in a variety of situations, ranging from professional settings to being worn on t-shirts. I personally have a trident keychain that I keep on my keys.
At Christmas time I had my nieces and nephew make cards for my friends and acquaintances in Ukraine. I taught them some words and phrases, and taught them about the Ukrainian flag and the trident so they could use these in their cards. My nephew thought the trident was the coolest thing, and as such included the trident as a focal point of every card he made. So it definitely has his stamp of approval! 🙂
I remember that beautiful photos of yours 💙💛
@@AnnafromUkraine he latched onto the trident and thought it was the coolest thing ever. 😎 I’m thinking of getting him something (a keychain, shirt, hat or the likes) with the trident on it. I’m sure he’ll love it!
What a beautiful show of solidarity and support for Ukraine! ♥️🥰🇺🇦💙💛🔱
@@irenes.2807 it was a meaningful activity that I’m glad I was able to do with the kids. I was originally thinking they’d each make a card or two, but they were very enthusiastic. Between the four of them, they made 17 cards! 😳😂 The youngest is five and has Down Syndrome, so she’s not to the point of drawing actual pictures yet, but she made a couple herself. She mainly scribbled on paper and demonstrated her ability to use scissors… 😂 Then the other kids helped out and added a nice message to them. I printed out a few phrases for them to copy in Cyrillic (“Merry Christmas”, “Glory to Ukraine” and “We love you”) and they did a wonderful job with them! Honestly, their handwriting was remarkably good (much better than mine, and I’ve been actually studying the language! 😂)
I scanned all the cards in and sent them to all my Ukrainian friends, including Anna, as well as to any other Ukrainians I follow on TH-cam. I was questioning if I should send them to a couple of the channels that I don’t watch as regularly or that I haven’t had as much interaction with, but felt it was our gift to the Ukrainian people and sent it to everybody that I was able to. It turns out, one of the people I was questioning sending them to ended up being very touched by it. He told me that it was what he woke up to in the morning, and that it set a positive tone for the whole day. 😊 He also told me that he was going to print them off and send them to the soldiers on the front line. So I was very happy that it brought some joy to the Ukrainians that I sent them to. 🙂
@@SpencerG89 well done Spencer G...your family can be well proud of you as are us subscribers...peace and love from the wirral peninsula...❤😊...E...
The trident was originally a fishing spear and is often seen with sea Gods like Poseidon. It also doubled as a land weapon as did many farming tools like pitch forks which were often three pronged, scythes, hammers and sickles.
This is really a good thing you do here. The trident is a symbol directly destroying the stories of the hobby historian in the Kremlin.
“The hobby historian in the Kremlin” - I like this description, I’m going to steal it… 😉
Excellent presentation! Concise but extremely informative. Thank you
Last year I put a trident sticker on my truck, as an obvious show of support, but recently I wondered if it wasn't right, since I am not Ukrainian. I didn't want to seem like I was appropriating something. But if Anna says it's okay, then I'll proudly display this symbol of courage and strength until the orcs have been driven from Ukraine permanently. And it actually has started a few conversations with curious strangers, so all the better. Slava Ukraine!
I’ve been trying to find the meaning of the trident since I first laid eyes on it. Thanks Anna, love from New Hampshire oblast, Patricia 👵🏻 🥰 Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
This woman unites eloquence, education, elegance, intelligence and beauty. Don't wake me up please.
In the Ukrainian alphabet, the "V" Volodymyr Velykyj is a "B." One "B" forward facing and one in reverse, along with a center cross, form the Trident. Volodymyr Velykyj baptized Rus "original name of Ukraine" as a Christian country in the year 988, 150 year before Moscow was even a swamp hut.
Poseidon ?
Damn it- another purchase made due to peer pressure and sweet graphics! LOL Great lesson on the history of the "trizub". I actually got to explain it to someone, since I have the one with the maple leaf background on my cars: they said, "I keep seeing these everywhere, what does it mean?". Now I can just give people this video for a much better explanation. :)
I have a feeling that I’m going to have a hard time limiting myself as Anna (and other Ukrainian TH-camrs that I follow) put out more shirts that I like. I’m going to have quite the collection! 😂
I have ordered 2 Tee shirts and when they arrive I will wear them with pride and show my support for The Ukraine. xx
My trident tattoo will come. I have contact with a tattoo artist in Kyiv, and when the moment comes I can come, I will be there to have it set (just like the Cossack I have on my right arm, I want to have it set in Ukraine). There is 1 open square left on my left arm (which carries images that tell stories, hopes and dreams of my life). Since 2013 Ukraine has become a part as well. Couldn't find a better spot.
Thank you, Anna, for sharing this history of the Ukrainian national emblem with us. When I hear trident, I think of Poseidon, the Greek god of the sea. But Ukraine's тризуб (tryzub) is more complex, more elaborate than Poseidon's trident, so I believe it must have a different meaning.
Ukraine's tryzub does resemble a diving falcon, and of course the falcon is a symbol of strength in many cultures. In the U.S., we even named one of our fighter jets accordingly: the F-16 Fighting Falcon. (Which the Armed Forces of Ukraine will put to good use soon.)
I wonder if Ukraine's tryzub is actually a combination of the seafaring trident and the falcon, representing the power of the sea combined with the power of the land. That seems very fitting for Ukraine. I can imagine an ancient ruler of the region wanting a symbol that represents that combination of strengths.
Hi Anna! Thanks Much !.......
Slava Tryzub!
Interesting to see and it is an attractive symbol against evil empire.
Hi Anna, thanks for this informative video! I have one question: do you have myths and stories about a female trinity from pre-christian times in Ukraine? I am interested in that topic, since I found the 3 goddesses in many countries. Slava Ukraini from Germany! 💙💛💙💛💙💛

Glad you liked it
In Ireland, where I'm from, we have the shamrock as a national symbol. Similar to the trident it depicts three elements on one stem. In our culture, we believe it represents the holy trinity, the father, son and holy spirit, all part of one God. Like Ukraine, we have a history of violence between neighbours. The stronger, more brutal, imperialist one imposes it's will on the smaller and weaker one. Just like the bully and victim in the schoolyard game, each learns how to live eventually in harmony, either by practicing what is not loving or what is loving. We learn either way. The one learns the bitter fruit of aggression is isolation, the other, the bitter fruit of contempt is attack. When our consciousness evolves to the understanding of our oneness in spirit, (one shamrock, one trident...),we shall have peace. So teach our children love, for only love heals. First comes understanding, then compassion, forgiveness, and love. Let it be soon, for we have suffered enough.
Greetings from Los Angeles, California, USA, Anna!!
Very interesting history enjoyed this 👌
Thank you Anna and Sasha very interesting video
The swooping eagle was a cool interpretation. Also, maybe we've all been looking for Atlantis in the wrong spot. How deep is the Black Sea? :)
Deep enough 😉
Before I learned what it really was a few months into the war, I thought it was a bird swooping down. Either way it’s a really cool symbol…
And maybe you’re right, we need to search the Black Sea for Atlantis… 😂

Trident also belong to the Hidnu God Shiva it is called Trishul and Greek God Poseidon, I think there is some relation all of them are connected
Respect Ukraine from India Hope you guys stay safe and achieve victory
