''Stauros'' () is the Greek word, usually translated to ''tree'', tree = pole or stake that in the New Testament names the device on which Jesus was executed. In the Homeric and classical periods, it denoted an upright pale, pole, or stake, but by the time that Christianity appeared, it came to include a crossbeam.. ==Etymology== The word ''stauros'' comes from the verb ἵστημι (''histēmi'': "straighten up", "stand"), which in turn comes from the Proto-Indo-European root '' *stā-'',〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Proto-Indo-European root *stā- )〕 '' *stha'', ''stao'', "stem", "shoot" (the same root from which come the German ''Stern'', or ''Stamm'', the English "stand", the Spanish word ''estaca'', the Polish ''stać'', the Italian ''stare'', of similar meanings). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「stauros」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
