When the
Celts borrowed an idea from another tradition
they always added their own unique character and
made it their own. Today the Celts are renowned
over the world for interlacing, but in fact this
motif was introduced by the Vikings. It is found
in many different cultures, though not to the
same extent. It can be traced back to ancient
Egypt, where it was a stylization of running
water. In a circle it probably indicates a well.
