INVERTED CROSS

The Petrine Cross (or colloquially Peter's Cross) is an inverted Latin cross traditionally used as a Christian symbol, but in recent times also used widely as an anti-Christ symbol, a meaning which is not valid with respect to traditional conventions of Christian symbolism. The origin of this symbol comes from the Catholic tradition that Simon Peter was crucified upside down, as told by Origen of Alexandria. The tradition first appears in the "Martyrdom of Peter," a fragmented text found in, but likely predating, the apocryphal Acts of Peter, which was written no later than 200 A.D. It is believed that Peter requested this form of crucifixion as he felt he was unworthy to be crucified in the same manner that Christ died (upright). As such, some Catholics use this cross as a symbol of humility and unworthiness in comparison to Christ.
