Borromean rings - History of origin and depictions
The name, Borromean rings, comes from their use in the coat of arms of the aristocratic Borromeo family in Italy. The link itself is much older and has appeared in the form of the valknut on Norse image stones dating back to the 7th century.
The Borromean rings have been used in different contexts to indicate strength in unity, e.g. in religion or art. In particular, some have used the design to symbolize the Trinity. The psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan famously found inspiration in the Borromean rings as a model for his topology of the human mind, with each ring representing a fundamental Lacanian component of reality (the "real", the "imaginary", and the "symbolic").
