Puzzle Description:
A crane! (With scrolls in the corners to make it solvable. I feel like a cheater!) The Celts often perceived the crane as a transformed human, usually a woman. For this reason eating its flesh was taboo. The crane may have been sybolic of apparent, rather than substantive, change.

Very cool. I like the corner scrolls.#2: Laurie Sims (laurie) on Sep 25, 2007
Love your designs, Arduinna. Keep 'm coming#3: Jan Wolter (jan) on Sep 25, 2007 [SPOILER]
I love this series. The horror vacui of Celtic art makes it a natural for PBN puzzles. The scrolls in the corners of this puzzle are totally authentic. No Celtic artist would have left all that space blank.#4: Arduinna (arduinna) on Sep 25, 2007 [SPOILER]
I found it was impossible to make recognizable Celtic knots with pixels! The scrolls are inferior stand-ins! But, I'm glad people are enjoying the series. They're lots of fun to make.#5: Gypso (Gypso) on Sep 25, 2007 [SPOILER]
