The Omphalos

The Omphalos pattern was inspired by the surface pattern on the Omphalos stone,

which is from the Oracle at Delphi, Greece. This is it. The Belly Button of The World.

 

Sometimes people say "The Belly Button of the Universe"...but in the old days, Earth was conveniently located in the center of the universe, so it amounts to the same thing. In the Omphaloskepsis Camp pictures, you can see we made our own Omphalos Stone.
