, United Kingdom The Christian claim to this work of spiritual art is missguided. The wheelhead cross head does not belong here, it does not fit nor has it weathered in the same way as the pillar. The christian inscriptions have been cut into the stone after the relief patterns have been removed on both pannels. The men who carved this stone went to a lot of trouble cutting the relief patterns. These patterns are not all symetrical like the decorative celtic knotwork patters seen everywhere else. They have a specific meaning and tell a far more interesting story.
