triskele
The triskele, also known as the triskelion, is an ancient symbol consisting of three interlocked spirals or three bent human legs. It has roots in various cultures, particularly in Celtic and Greek traditions, where it often represents concepts such as motion, progress, and the interconnectedness of life. The design is thought to symbolize the cycle of life, death, and rebirth.
In Celtic culture, the triskele is often associated with the number three, which holds significant spiritual meaning. It can represent various triads, such as land, sea, and sky, or the past, present, and future. The symbol continues to be used in modern contexts, including art and jewelry, reflecting its enduring legacy.
