:''For the city in Japan, see Amagi, Fukuoka''

'''Ama-gi''' is an ancient Sumerian word (AMA.GI ) thought to mean "freedom". It is believed to be the first instance of humans using writing to represent that concept. Literally translated, it means "return to the mother", for reasons unknown.^[1]
The ''Ama-gi'' cuneiform symbol has been adopted by some anarcho-capitalists and other libertarians. The journal of the Hayek Society at the London School of Economics, the largest libertarian student group in England, is titled ''Ama-gi''^[2]. The symbol is used as a logo by the Institucion Politica para la Libertad of Peru, and another version is a trademarked logo of the publishing firm Liberty Fund, Inc.
