Religious Meanings Of Five Lesser-Known Crosses 

The cross of Jesus Christ is the most recognisable symbol in Christendom. But there are other crosses as well. Here are some of them: 

The Papal Cross

This is the official symbol of the Pope. It represents his authority on Catholic believers and also his deference to God. 

The Nordic Cross 

The Scandinavian countries have crosses of different colours on their flags. These mean to show that these countries have a proud Christian past. 

The Constantine’s Cross 

This is also called The Chi Rho cross. This was used by ancient Roman emperor Constantine as he thought it has religious and emotional value. 

The Tau Cross 

The Ankh Cross

Crosses are found in other cultures as well. In ancient Egyptian culture, the Ankh was a powerful symbol representing life.
