Abstract: In 1988 a new hypertopology, called \textbf{proximal
(finite) hypertopology} was discovered. It involves the use of a proximity
in the upper part but leaves the lower part the same as the lower Vietoris
topology. In 1966, the lower Vietoris topology, which involves finitely many
open sets, led to another lower topology involving locally finite families
of open sets. In this paper, we change the lower hypertopology using a
proximity and thus get a ``symmetric`` proximal hypertopology, which
includes the earlier `finite' topologies.
