Aesthetically, there’s often something inherently satisfying about trios, threesomes, triads.
One of Sicily’s ancient names is Trinacria, referring to the island’s triangular shape. The word is a riff on the Greek τρισκέλιον (triskelion), and is portrayed today as a face strangely framed by three bent (human) legs, a visual riff on three-legged tables that ran about in the Iliad (if WikiPee is correct).
