Tryzub-Tamga "FCK PTN"

Ukrainian tamga with tryzup and inscription FCK PTN.

Detailed replica of a medieval tamga pendant with tryzub and inscription based on a historical model of the Kievian Rus.

On the front, this pendant faithfully reproduces a so-called tamga of St. Vladimir I, which dates to the end of the 10th century.

On the back there is an inscription with the abbreviation FCK PTN in Old Cyrillic, for the meaning of which only the corresponding vowels need to be added in the spirit.

Tamgas are early medieval symbols of rule of the Rurikid dynasty of the Rus, which were used as a kind of princely identity card and found their way in a similar form onto the Tryzub, the national coat of arms of today's Ukraine.

The tryzup is today the small national emblem of Ukraine. However, its historical roots go much further, as the first historical evidence dates back to the time of Rus and was found especially on coins and rulers' signs, so-called tamgas from about 1000 AD onwards, which showed a stylised trident.

There are many legends about the meaning of the tryzup, but it is assumed that it is of Tartar origin and was later used in various forms on the tamgas of the Rurikid dynasty as a sign of power.
