More about this scene
On the 14th-century pillared cross is one of the earliest surviving representations of the Three Legs of Man. The other is on the Manx Sword of State which Olaf Godreson is said to have owned c1230. The device was used as early as 1310 by Henry de Bello Morte, Lord of Man. It might derive from a triple knot design used by the Norse-Irish kings of Dublin, or from the swastika.
