The symbol of Omega, I believe, represents a fine wire choker necklace of gold.
In turn, this represents the science of Alchemy, in general.
I'm not sure where the centre of this occupation was, but an interesting article did pop up on the internet before, although I can't find it again. This outlined a recent unearthing of a temple in Portugal / Spain, which had a large floor mosaic of the Omega symbol, central in the temple, it would seem.
I think that possibly this temple could actually have been a centre, where the science of Alchemy was being taught, to a select few most likely.
The gold wire choker could also have come to symbolise something which goes full circle, as in life, and then is completed or ends.
