In 1814 patriots, Philhellenes and Greeks founded Filiki Eteria. Their aim was to free the motherland from the tyrants that were ruling it. Now as then, we Philhellenes, Greeks and Greek patriots from all over the world found Nea Filiki Eteria with the same goal as our ancestors and with the intention of resuming or initiating a new Hellenistic Spring. Our symbol is composed by an ouroboros that
encloses the sun of Vergina. The name ouroboros comes from the Greek “οὐροβόρος” where οὐρά (ourà) means “tail” and βορός (boròs) “devouring”. Plato describes it for the first time in the Timaeus (360 B.C.), where it stands to symbolise the eternal return, the Infinite as well as immortality. The sun of Vergina is the symbol of the ancient reign of Macedonia, promoter of the Hellenist culture and of Hellenism in general in the then known world. The union of these two symbols is meant to depict the timelessness of the Hellenistic notion.
