The Byzantine Cross

The Byzantine Cross consisting of 4 crossbeams in total
With one that is slanted from left on top and right on bottom
Unlike the well known 2 crossbeams that is normal
The 2 crossbeams extra which is their custom

One at the head one at the feet
There it is one very unbalanced
Due to the foot which has been breaked
More interpretions for the cross which meet

Some say the horizontal beam symbolizes secular power
and the slanted means ecclesiastic of the Byzantine
Or so one is death and one is life
of the son of God
