Nostos

Nostos is a Greek term meaning "homecoming" or "return," originally used in Greek literature to describe the journey of a hero back to their homeland after adventures or hardships. It symbolizes not just physically returning home, but also the emotional and psychological process of reclaiming one’s identity and sense of belonging. In broader terms, nostos reflects the universal desire for connection, stability, and the resolution of a long journey or quest. It highlights the importance of returning to one’s roots, often after facing challenges or transformations along the way.
