Celtic Shield Knot

Celtic shield knots can be articular as any of the Celtic knots with distinct corner areas. They usually resemble a square but sometimes they are a aboveboard shaped square emblem in a circle. As in all Celtic knots there is no beginning or end. The Celtic shield knot idea comes from civilizations older than the Celts. Anciently, it was a universally accepted attribute for protection from crisis and warding off angry spirits. The symbol is alwaiys fourfold based, but within a greater unity.
