| | Celtic cross |
 | | On several crosses, notably the Cross of Muiredach at Monasterboice and the Cross of the Scriptures at Clonmanois, both in Ireland Christ is enthroned in Glory at the center of the cross. | | | The Celtic Crosses made at Iona and elsewhere from the 6th century onwards were made by Christians for the Glory of God. | | | That the cross within a circle also evolved from the Chi-Rho coincides with the emergence of the cross as a symbol throughout Christendom at a time when the Gospel was being delivered to a sun worshipping culture presents just the kind of multiple choice mystery that is characteristic of Celtic history. |

| | Celtic scripture crosses such as these were erected for many reasons, as preaching and teaching posts in lieu of church structures, as monuments to the glory of God, as monastic boundary and protection devices and as memorials to specific individuals, living and legendary. | | | It is the only surviving cross to feature all four Evangelistic symbols: the man for Matthew (the humanity of Christ), the lion for Mark (Christ's resurrection), the ox for Luke (Christ's sacrifice), and the eagle for John (Christ's divinity). | | | Taken from the famous 11th century church in Kilpeck, England, this Celtic Goddess figure is thought to have served both as a fertility symbol, a goddess related to death and rebirth and a protector against evil spirits. |

| | This amazing cross is capable of measuring angles to an accuracy of three arc minutes showing that the cross may be more important than the pyramid since the pyramid could not exist without the cross. | | | The teachers of the Christian faith use it, kneel before it, wear it as part of their raiment and yet they do not seem to recognize it for what it is. | | | It is possible that the Churches knew of its purpose during the last few centuries, but it seems that it is completely forgotten now. |
