The Christian Cross & A Medieval Longsword SHARE The Same Form -- I Had NEVER NOTICED That.

Had YOU?

I guess I had, prior to this, NOT seen the two juxtapositioned.

When I saw that War Memorial (above) I was TRANSFIXED. I had to STOP the movie & gawk at it.

WOW. There has goto be TONS of symbolism.

I just looked it up. Yes, during medieval times the symbolism was known & exploited. You can appreciate that -- at once. A sword of that shape must provide the bearer with protection.

I will do a post about the movie, i.e., 'The Last Rifleman', soon -- when I get the time. Very British. I liked it. But, seeing this Cross was a highlight.

I had to SHARE it with you.

How many of you knew.

Wow. I am still in wonder.
