Celtic crosses : ウィキペディア英語版 | Celtic cross
Celtic cross ((アイルランド語:cros Cheilteach),〔(Dictionary of Irish Terms )〕 (スコットランド・ゲール語:crois Cheilteach), (マン島語:crosh Cheltiagh), (ウェールズ語:croes Geltaidd), (コーンウォール語:krows keltek), (ブルトン語:kroaz geltek)) is a symbol that combines a cross with a ring surrounding the intersection; the cross' stem being longer than the other three intersection. It belongs to a wider group of crosses with a ''nimbus''.〔A nimbus is an indication of radiant light drawn around the head of a saint or a crosfs, related to a halo.〕 In the Celtic Christian world it was combined with the Christian cross and this design was often used for high crosses – a free-standing cross made of stone and often richly decorated.〔Werner 98〕 With the Celtic Revival the shape, usually decorated with interlace and other motifs from Insular art, became popular for funerary monuments and other uses, and has remained so, spreading well beyond Ireland. ==Christian usage==
