Celtic Iron Age Druid Triskele Large Wax Seal Pendant | Seal Date & Origin: 900 BC, Iron Age Celtic Site #S3354

A symbol dating to the dawn of the Celtic peoples - the Triskele

The Triskele, an ancient nature symbol, first appeared in Ireland in 3,200 BC. It was used to symbolize the sun, and also the three great natural forces... earth, sea and sky.

The seal used to make this pendant was one of a set of two unearthed at a Celtic dig site. At almost one inch across, it is the larger of the two. It would have been used by the Druids, and is one of the earliest sealing devices we curate.

The "Branch and Dot" pattern is classic Celt, and it is easy to see how the Triskele became a symbol of the Holy Trinity as Christianity was adopted by the Celtic peoples.
