Keltisk knude
En keltisk knude (irsk: snaidhm Cheilteach, walisisk: cwlwm Celtaidd, kornisk: kolm Keltek, skotsk gælisk: snaidhm Ceilteach) er en type af knude og stiliseret grafisk repræsentation af knuder der bruges til dekoration, og i særdeleshed i keltisk insulær kunst. Disse knuder kendes især for deres brug i ornamenter på kristne monumenter og manuskripter, som Lichfieldevangelierne, Book of Kells Lindisfarneevangelierne. De fleste er uendelige knuder og mange er variationer af kurvefletknuder.
Sammenflettede mønstre kendes tilbage fra slutningen af Romerriget.[1] Knudemønstre optræder i tredje og fjerde århundrede e.v.t. og kan ses på romerske gulvmosaikker. Udvikling af knudemønstre ses i byzantinsk arkitektur, illuminerede manuskripter, koptisk kunst, keltisk kunst, islamisk kunst, bogilluminationer fra Kijevriget, ethiopisk kunst og europæisk arkitektur og bogilluminationer.
Keltiske knudedesigns blev populære i tatoveringer i USA i 1970'erne og 1980'erne.[2]

A quasi-celtic cross made of large symmetrical knot with a circle interlaced through its center. The knot is made up of straight lines which are vertical, horizontal, or at 45° angles, and of circular arcs all of the same radius. If the large circle were to be removed, then the over-under interlacing of the crossings of the horizontal and vertical lines at the center would have to be reversed to preserve the alternation of the knot interlace pattern (see Celtic-knot-cross no circle.svg).

A small part of the Roman mosaic (called the Great Pavement) at Woodchester, Gloucestershire, England.
The mosaic is 48 feet by 48 feet (15 metres by 15 metres) and uses 1.5 million pieces of stone, each 0.5 by 0.5 inches (12 mm by 12 mm ). Once the floor of a main hall of a Roman villa, it was laid around AD 325.
Photographed by Adrian Pingstone in 1972 (the last time the mosaic was on display).
