heralds don't pun ...

Woodward's Heraldry (if memory serves) suggests that it is an eel (anguilla), canting for a lordship of (something like) Anguivaria. —Tamfang (talk) 17:58, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

Dietrich?

Dietrich von Bern links here as this is part of his Legend. Why no mention here?2601:806:4301:C100:C84:2660:4EA2:BD28 (talk) 04:08, 8 August 2017 (UTC)

Biscione: swallowing child/man OR birthing child/man ?

Apparently Museo Storico Alfa Romeo (Alfa Romeo Historical Museum) says the Alfa Romeo logo depicts a human emerging from the snake and not the other way around. This is supposed to represent the process of man reinventing himself . The following article discusses this and several other interesting tidbits of knowledge about the logo's history. I do not read Italian so I cannot verify the sources linked to in this article but hopefully this can help the editors of this article who are fluent in Italian.
