Cameo Description: The rooster is associated with courage and battle, with masculinity and the sun. Its crow heralds the dawn and symbolizes the victory of light over darkness. It is equated with fertility, and its sacrifice forms part of many harvest rites. In Christianity, the rooster is a symbol of resurrection, and as a weather vane, it represents vigilance. It has long been used in ritual. In some places, roosters are sacrificed so that their blood returns fertility to the soil. In Greek mythology it is associated with Ares. One night, while in bed with Aphrodite, Ares put a youth named Alectryon by his door to guard them. He fell asleep and Helios, the son, walked in on the couple. Ares turned Alectryon into a rooster, which never forgets to announce the arrival of the sun in the morning.
