keys are also quite canonized . Just as with the symbols to be " directional keys ." At first, we Zara seems to be sorted : Keys to power ( in St. Peter ) , two keys , groove " to the sky ." All this is described in the essay " Blago_darya " posted in my diary .
And yesterday , walking around St. Isaac's Cathedral , drew attention to the gates of bronze reliefs ( Pochtamtskaya side of the street) . Two figures of saints. One in the hands of two key grooves down ( to the ground) , the other - a sword. Symbolism .
Why is the " grooves down "?

Another era altogether . Perhaps the situation is not given much sense. It is already possible not to engage in speculative reconstruction, probably there are experts who know the history of the construction of Isaka , has been the bureaucratic apparatus , documentation , archives , maybe it's something completely known .
