There are many different Irish symbol tattoos that are popular today, many of which date back hundreds of years to the ancient Celtic times of Ireland. Some specific examples of these symbols would include characters taken from Celtic runes and Ogham stones or various Celtic knot patters found in old Irish literature and art. Probably the most famous Irish symbols used in ink art would be the triskelion and Celtic cross. The people who choose these Irish symbol tattoos usually have different motivations for doing so. Some of them are Irish diaspora who are looking for a way to reconnect with their Irish roots. Others simply like the aesthetic qualities of the symbols and wish to decorate their bodies with them. Some of these symbols are even worn as political statements or as fringe cult style adornments, both having a sort of unifying message.
