The word "cross" comes from the Latin word crux, meaning "post," "gallows," or "gibbet." This cross shape is used primarily by the Russian Orthodox Church. The upper bar represents the inscription "INRI", which Governor Pontius Pilate placed on the cross above Jesus's head.

INRI, known as the Titulus Crucis, is the acronym of the Latin phrase Iesvs Nazarenvs, Rex Ivdaeorvm "Jesus the Nazarene, King of the Jews". It is the stated charge for which Jesus was condemned.
