The French word bichon is attested from 1588, but barbichon does not appear until 1694. Bichons descended from the ancient ancestors of the poodle and the barbet. From this, the barbichon, a small curly-coated water spaniel and another name for this family, was bred.
A geoglyph is a work of art which is created by arranging or moving objects within a landscape. These objects are usually stones or earth.
Glyph Definition. Glyph has a number of meanings in different disciplines. In archeology, a glyph a written or inscribed symbol. A good example would be the famous hieroglyphics of ancient Egypt. A glyph may be a pictogram, which conveys a particular object or action with a picture. Or it may be an ideogram, where the symbol is intended to invoke an idea. 1  The bar across the letter U on a no U-turns sign is an example of an ideogram; it communicates that a particular action is prohibited. A glyph may also convey a sound, and as such, the letters of the alphabet are glyphs.
