    You missed the Coptic or Ethiopian cross. It's a very important symbol of Christianity in Africa.

    Emperor constantine the first emperor to convert to Christianity send his mother Helena to Jerusalem to find Jesus cross and they found it and part of it was given to different people do do NOT say Jesus christ did not died on a cross.then you sound like Jehovas mormons etc....The Bible also tells us about the cross,,,When Jesus was dead he was liftet down and burried in this cave...People who not Belive in the Bible or on Jesus Christ can deny any thing and satan wants us to not belive in the Bible etc...

    The ankh was before all that shit you showed yo hand when u said the swastika was cross though

    Hi Tavoris - thanks for stopping by. The crosses on this list aren't in chronological order - you'll find the Ankh also included. The swastika is a cross - it has two arms that cross at the center - and in the East, it's still considered a sacred symbol. However, as we've mentioned, the Nazi association has tainted this ancient symbol.
