Summary/Abstract: The symbolic images of the persistent research for integration or synthesis of opposites have been expressed throughout history, in the myth and in an abundant setof plastic, poetic and literary works. In what follows, from some examples of the European Neolithic (7000-3500 B.C.) and the Pre-classic period of Ancient Mexico (2500-1500 B.C.), this symbolism of duality is emphasized as expression of the continuing human quest for completeness.
