A key.
The map key (usually found in the corner of the map) will tell you what all the symbols on the map mean. It also tells you the scale of the map, and any other information you may need to read the map.

I personally think that we have symbols for many reasons such as;1. to simplify maths but putting symbol in places to represent things, like in algebra2. to separate the world into country, county's and towns, like flags.3.to represent different religions- like the cross for Christians, the 6 pointed star for the Jewish... etc4. to show where certain places are, and to advertise things and places.5. to brand a certain product so that no one else can copy the creatures ideas.6. and finally to break the barrier between different languages.but that is in my opinion, and I don't think its that reliable so... :)

No, this is an internet myth and it is total nonsense. The president has spoken in churches, synagogues, mosques, Hindu temples, and a variety of other places. He has never covered up the symbols of the places where he speaks, and there are many photos online of him speaking in these places, with the symbols visible. Further, since the president is a Christian, there is no reason for him to cover up the symbols of the religion he and his wife practice.
