It is not the most recognizable Roman cross; instead, it has the shape of the letter “T” and is known as the Egyptian cross, crux commissa, the Cross of St. Anthony, or tau—the last, twenty-second letter of the Hebrew alphabet. This letter was often used by illiterate people as a mark to confirm their identity on official documents. In this way, it metaphorically expressed what constitutes the essence of a person—their name.\nAs the final letter, it became a symbol of humanity’s last hope and at the same time a sign of redemption. In Greek culture, this sign expressed exactly the same meaning as in the Judaic tradition: it represented the sacred number three hundred, believed to possess saving power.\nSkulls bearing the burned shape of the “T” have been found in large numbers at prehistoric archaeological sites. One hypothesis suggests that such markings identified people affected by illness or those who regularly interacted with supernatural forces—priests and shamans. The symbol functioned as an apotropeion, a protective sign. Since ancient times it was painted above the doors of houses or placed on amulets to ward off demons or protect against plague.","brand":"Obscura Forges","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57546586587518,"sku":null,"price":170.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1007\/3633\/6254\/files\/718a0753-il_fullxfull.7823876419_bu08.jpg?v=1781463927","url":"https:\/\/obscuraforges.com\/products\/inspired-by-zdzislaw-beksinski-t-cross-3d-resin-sculpture-height-11-42-in-29-cm-290-mm","provider":"Obscura Forges","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
