The Trident — Ukraine’s National Symbol as Trito Marker
The Trito Myth is the most attested Indo-European story… Ukraine sees itself in Trito’s position. Ukraine’s national symbol is even the trident! Russia, like the three-headed and six-eyed serpent, has stolen Ukraine’s prosperity and security.

The trident is the weapon of the Indo-European storm god (Poseidon, Shiva) who assists Trito. Ukraine literally carries the symbol of divine assistance as its national emblem. Russia plays the role of the serpent.
