Also known as the Greek or eastern orthodox cross is identified by the fact that it has a top bar above the main bar and a third bar often a slant close to the bottom. If it is used as a symbol by the eastern orthodox churches the bottom bar has a slant and when used by the Greek orthodox church the bottom bar is usually at right angles. The orthodox cross is first seen in religeous art around the 6th century.
