The Cross of the Taureg people is a four-directional cross, not a Christian cross. The circle on the top means the Sun, the Full Moon, the Life Cycle and the Earth itself. The four arms of the cross stand for the four ages of man, the four directions, the four seasons and the four religions known to the Taureg people: Chrisitanity, Judaism, Islam, and the Ancient African Way of the Spirits. 1-3/8" long. Pewter. Comes on a descriptive card.
