Information: The Celts dominated large parts of Europe from the third century B.C. In Britain the Celtic culture would be subsumed by the Romans, but their language, religion and art would have a lasting influence on subsequent cultures. The Celtic culture left such an indelible mark on Europe that Celtic enclaves survived through the subsequent Roman occupation and into medieval times. Celtic styles of art and music are still influencing modern cultures in Europe over 2,000 years later.

The Cross is the best known as the supreme symbol of the Christian faith. Cross symbolism itself is much older the Christianity. Cross designs engraved or painted on flat pebbles have been found dating from 10,000 B.C.
