The beehive's internal structure is a densely-packed matrix of hexagonal cells made of beeswax, called a honeycumb. The bees use the cells to store honey and pollen, and to house the "brood" (eggs, larvae, and pupae).
Artificial beehives serve two purposes: production of honey and pollination of nearby crops. Artificial hives are commonly transported so that bees can pollinate crops in other areas.
The beehive is a commonly used symbol dating at least to Roman times. In medieval heraldry it was considered a symbol of industry. In modern times, it is used in Freemasonry.
In masonic lectures is explained as symbol of industry and co-operation, and as cautioning against intellectual laziness, warning that "he that will so demean himself as not to be endeavoring to add to the common stock of knowledge and understanding, may be deemed a drone in the hive of nature, a useless member of society, and unworthy of our protection as Masons."
My hive contains pollen, medic and own 'brood'... I add to the common stock of knowledge and understanding, I have a drone in the hive of nature, am a usefull member of society, and sure worthy of protection.
