Easter patternsPosted by Catherine Cartwright Jones on April 04, 2000 at 11:38:41: Someone asked me by email if I had crosses as henna patterns ..... yes ..... even with some decent provenance. In Armenia, men often (for weddings or special occasions) have a cross hennaed on their bicep in imitation of the priests, who have a cross tattooed on their arms. Through the medieval period, Christians who had made a pilgrimage to Jerusalem or so would have a cross tattooed on their right arm ... with the notion that the hand of God would guide all their actions.
