in addition to the above analyzed works, symbolic representations of fractals can be found in cultures across the continents spanning several centuries, including roman, egyptian, aztec, incan and mayan civilizations. they frequently predate patterns named after the mathematicians who subsequently developed their visual characteristics. for example, although von koch is famous for developing the koch curve in 1904, a similar shape featuring repeating triangles was first used to depict waves in friezes by hellenic artists (300 b.c.e.). in the 13th century, repetition of triangles in cosmati mosaics generated a shape later known in mathematics as the sierpinski triangle (named after sierpinski's 1915 pattern). triangular repetitions are also found in the 12th century pulpit of the ravello cathedral in italy. the lavish artwork within the book of kells (circa 800 c.e.) and the sculpted arabesques in the jain dilwara temple in mount abu, india (1031 c.e.) also both reveal stunning examples of exact fractals. the artistic works of leonardo da vinci and katsushika hokusai serve as more recent examples from europe and asia, each reproducing the recurring patterns that they saw in nature. da vinci's sketch of turbulence in water, the deluge (1571–1518), was composed of small swirls within larger swirls of water. in the great wave off kanagawa (1830–1833), hokusai portrayed a wave crashing on a shore with small waves on top of a large wave. other woodcuts from the same period also feature repeating patterns at several size scales: the ghost of kohada koheiji shows fissures in a skull and the falls at mt. kurokami features branching channels in a waterfall.
