The Three-bar Cross appears with great frequency in Slavic religious symbolism. Tradition teaches that when the Apostle Andrew preached in southern Russia he placed a life-size three-bar cross at his side. While explaining the Last Judgment, he tilted the foot plate to signify that those on the right side of Christ will go up into heaven and those on the left will go down into hell.
