In mathematics Borromean rings consist of three circles that are linked. The name "Borromean rings" comes from their use in the coat of arms of the aristocratic Borromeo family in Northern Italy. The link itself is much older and has appeared on Norse images 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. – From Wikipedia.
