Abstract
The article focuses on systematic research of Christian colour symbols as well as upon definition of symbol as a hyper sign which represents certain concepts, ideas or phenomena accepted in some communities. It was pointed out that colours as super symbols, which are realized through certain images (visions), pictures and clothes or even through a word, accepted symbolic use typical for Christianity. It was also proved that in Middle Ages colour defined status in clothes and its depicting in literature. At the same time colour was an expressive characteristic for dynamic liturgy as a complicated dynamic system of different signs (images-icons, symbols and indexes). In general symbols were defined as complicated cultural phenomena depending upon both individual interpretation and upon the level of cultural stereotypes.
