[Meta] Ornate bead, Byzantine Empire, ~5th century AD? ( Historic picture of the TriForce)

Thought this would be interesting. Anyone else see examples of historic art that inspired gaming ?

No one ever wants to talk about the octoforce.

One episode had a second Triforce, so if you could assemble both you'd have a Hexaforce. Maybe. They're getting there.

I always thought it was based on the hojo clan's crest.

It's a pretty obvious graphic pattern. It wouldn't be crazy to think that it would have been developed independently of any influence.

Still what you mention looks dead on

I'm more concerned about the Umbrella logo.
