Rivers are the beginning
of civilization and history.
Lots of steams gather into a river
and saltless water necessary
for survival and things
from flowing water fertilize
the land which brings people
with a livable environment.
Egypt, Mesopotamia and Indus,
the Yellow River, etc.

Rivers have contrary meanings
such as separation
and communication.
As the meaning of separation,
it cannot be crossed easily
without tools. the River Styx
from the legends in the East
and the West to divide the boundary
of this world and afterlife,
and still the borders of many cities
or countries are divided
by the rivers.
To the other way,
it has a meaning of communication.
Human or animals can’t carry a lot.
However, using the river enables
carrying any amount of things.
So it’s used as a place
of communication with the flow
of logistics.
