Description:

The monastic Calvary Cross, in which the cross is situated atop the hill of Calvary, its slopes symbolized by steps. To the viewer's left is the Holy Lance, with which Jesus was wounded in his side, and to the right, the pole topped by a hyssop sponge with which he was given vinegar. Under Calvary are Adam's skull and bones; the right-arm bone is usually above the left one, and believers fold their arms across their chests in this way during Orthodox communion. 

Around the cross are abbreviations in Church Slavonic: 

ЦРЬ СЛВЫ — «Царь Славы», Lord of Glory 

ІС ХС - Иисус Христос, Jesus Christ

СНЪ БЖІЙ — «Сын Божий» Son of God

НИКА - Victor; К - копьё, spear

Т - трость, pole (with a sponge)

М Л Р Б — «место лобное рай бысть» “place of execution is paradise”

Г Г — «гора Голгофа» "mount Golgotha" (Calvary)

Г А — «глава Адамова» "Adam's head".

This type of cross is usually embroidered on a schema-monk's robe.
