Its eight points and narrow v-shaped arms were originally worn on armor to show unity and faith. The design, often shown in white against a red field, became a lasting symbol of commitment and sacrifice during the Crusades. **History** The cross became especially symbolic in 1565, when the Knights of Malta defended the island from Ottoman forces during the Great Siege. Although Napoleons arrival in 1798 ended the knights rule, the Maltese Cross lived on as a powerful sign of courage and support for those in need. **Ordering** Questions about this release?
