The Beijing Olympic Games organization committee released a set of symbols
representing each of the sports for the 2008 Games on Monday, one day before its

The release ceremony is one of a set of celebrations held by the organization

Olympic pictographs, which were first seen at the 1964 Tokyo Olympic Games,
are used as the official marks for the broadcasting, advertising and marketing
