Information: The Celtic wheel cross is essentially a Latin cross with a ring surrounding the intersection of the arms, which are of equal length. Scholars have debated its exact origins, but it is related to earlier crosses featuring rings. The shape, usually decorated with interlace and other motifs from Insular art, became popular for funerary monuments and other uses, and has remained so, spreading well beyond Ireland.
