Welcome to the image collection dedicated to ancestors — the foundational figures from whom, according to traditional beliefs, entire lineages, peoples, or family trees originate. The concept of ancestors encompasses many aspects, from deep-rooted stories to cultural myths passed down through generations.

This collection features images illustrating the diversity and richness of heritage associated with the idea of ancestors. These may include symbolic representations of ancient forebears, as well as real historical figures who played key roles in the development of their peoples. For example, you will find images of ancient manuscripts that contain life stories and accounts of the lives of outstanding representatives of their lineages.

Ancestors are often framed within the context of their eras: the historical events surrounding them shaped both their identity and the existence of subsequent generations. The images may depict traditional rites and rituals that commemorate the ancestors, paying tribute to their achievements and lessons.

Photographs highlight places related to ancestral boats: these can be ancient burial mounds and barrows, sacred sites where important events took place, or historical monuments embodying the connection between generations. Seasonal changes can also be significant — spring and autumn often mark transitions that are deeply tied to the life cycle and the continuation of lineage.

Our collection is an opportunity to immerse yourself in the world of cultural heritage and deep roots that shape modernity. Here you will find images that contribute to the exploration of identity and connection to one's roots, fitting into a global context. We hope that these photographs and graphic elements will serve as a source of inspiration for your projects.
