In the folklore of the Egyptians, Greeks and Romans, a mythical bird burns itself and is reborn from the ashes.

The legend of the Phoenix was born from ancient solar symbolism. The sun is one in the sky, it dies every evening and rises every morning. The Phoenix has many "relatives": the Arabian birds Rukh and Anka, the Indian Garuda, the Iranian Simurg. In Russia, the firebird was called "Firebird" or "Fear Bird", in Slovakia - "Firebird".
