Greetings friends!

Most of those who like to travel around the world dream of visiting France.

Seeing the Eiffile Tower, wandering the corridors of the Louvre, dorton to the walls of the Bastille, hear street musicians and enjoy French cuisine, this is an incomplete list of French spices that give travelers an unforgettable experience.

Any trip allows you to learn something new about the country you visited and expands your horizons.

Today, I propose to travel to France, in 1965, looking through a postage stamp from Series Gallic Cock, issued exactly this year, 1965.

This postage stamp features Gallus gallus domesticus.

Gallic Cock, this is one of the symbols of France, which could not become the official symbol of the country.

The fact is that the "rooster" is a symbol of the peoples who inhabited the territory of France, Belgium, the Netherlands and Spain, in ancient times these peoples were also called - Gauls!

Yes, Asterix and Obelix, these are not entirely fictional characters.

The Gauls were freedom-loving people and were not very fond of the Romans, who were trying to conquer all of Europe.

It was the Romans who gave these peoples a name - "Gaaly", which means "rooster".

The Gaals were red-haired and their hairstyles were like the red comb of a rooster.

This resemblance to a bird, the Romans designated in one word - "Gaal".

Note, then, in the old days, the European Union did not exist yet, but different peoples were united under one name "Gaal".

Let's take a look at this postage stamp.

Интересный рисунок на марке. Интересно автора пытались таким образом продемонстрировать огонь в образе огненого петуха или просто так совпало?

Я думаю, восход солнца говорит о том, что петух, всегда стоит на страже рассвета) красноголовый петух, символизрует рыжеволосых гааолов, их свободолюибе.
