Pagan Cross

Abracadabra Cross / Pagan Cross From 7th Century. 

"This inscribed silver cross from the 7th century AD was found at the beginning of the 20th century in an early medieval grave under the gothic Cathedral of Lausanne (Vaud, Switzerland). Intended to ward off misfortune" -copied from Sketchfab 

The transition from ancient pagan beliefs and practices to early Christianity during the spread of the Christian religion across Europe, particularly in Switzerland around the 5th century AD. During this time, people were adapting their old beliefs and integrating them with new religious teachings. The object here, engraved with the protective formula "ABRAX ABRACA" (later known as "ABRACADABRA"), is an example of how ancient practices continued to exist alongside early Christian beliefs in Europe. This artifact also highlights that such objects from this period are quite rare and valuable for understanding historical connections between different belief systems.
