In Response To: Re: Maeldun? (zeph)

: Also look at that head on Connachts Armour. Its an symbol
: often used in Bibles written 1500 years ago in Ireland
: and It's on the Irish Penny and 2 Penny coins(Not that
: specific one but variations of the same design and
: style)

Actually it predates all that. It's a depiction of either a stag or a wolf in the pagan knotwork style of the Celts. Ireland happened to adopt that into Catholiscism, but it comes from waaay back.
