Cross and crucifix: in Christian worship and devotion

---

Amongst the cryptograms found in the Roman catacombs on Christian epitaphs is the monogram of the Chi Rho accompained by a dove. This is believed to signify the gift of the Holy Spirit given through the anointing in the form of the Chi Rho with the chrism on the brow when the departed person had been initiated into the Christian Church.
