cross moline
The cross moline (also cross anchory, French ''croix ancrée'' "anchor cross") is a form of heraldic cross.
==History==
The name derives from its shape, which resembles a millrind, ''moline'' being the Old French for a mill, the iron clamp of the upper millstone. It is very similar to one of the varieties of the "fer de moline" heraldic charge (literal French: "iron of a mill"), the forked tips of which however circle out slightly more, akin to the "cross recercelee". It is borne both inverted and rebated, and sometimes "saltirewise" (i.e. in the form of a saltire).
When used as a mark of cadency it signifies an eighth son.
The cross moline is associated with St. Benedict of Nursia. As a result, it is widely used as an emblem by the monks and nuns of the Order of St. Benedict, which he founded.
