My website pictures this design: http://bennerfarms.com/dutch/index.html The symbol is known to art historians as a simple geometric design, but it has been used as part of the Christian culture since the time of Jesus. Prior to Jesus this design was Judaic, and can be found in the ruins of the Gamla Synagogue and ossuaries from pre-Roman destruction of Jerusalem.
