Image Collection: Sprial Designs

Spiral patterns are on of the earliest Celtic motifs used. As shown in [Meehan5], spirals have been used since Neolithic times! And, by the early Celtic period (500-350 BC), spirals are known as one of the identifying motifs of that style. Spirals continued to be popular, integrated with other artistic influences and motifs, through the entire Celtic period.
