5,000 year-old triskelion on an orthostat at Newgrange. The triple spiral symbol, or three-spiral volute, appears in many early cultures: the first appeared in Malta (4400–3600 BCE); the second in the astronomical calendar of the megalithic tomb of Newgrange in Ireland built around 3200 BCE; [13] as well as on Mycenaean vessels.
For <, spiral-ring pattern; =, regular spiral; >, loose spiral. R is the distance of spiral starting point (0, R) to the center. R is the distance of spiral starting point (0, R) to the center. The calculated x and y have to be rotated backward by ( − θ {\displaystyle -\theta } ) for plotting.

A volute is a spiral, scroll-like ornament that forms the basis of the Ionic order, found in the capital of the Ionic column. It was later incorporated into ...

Version of the Triple Spiral symbol (see Image:Triple-Spiral-Symbol.svg) with the area enclosed between the spirals filled in (and mirror-reflected with respect to Image:Triple-Spiral-Symbol.svg).

The Celtic triple-spiral is in fact a pre-Celtic symbol. [15] It is carved into the rock of a stone lozenge near the main entrance of the prehistoric Newgrange monument in County Meath , Ireland . Newgrange was built around 3200 BCE, predating the Celts; triple spirals were carved at least 2,500 years before the Celts reached Ireland, but have ...
