Abstract: (A new testamentary sacred symbol. Maltese cross stones from Caras-Severin country) A domain less investigated by linguists, historians and particularly by theologians represents the cemeteries’ wealth. The emergence of various materials (marble, granite, iron, concrete etc), their processing ease, simple access to the various tools/equipment and of course the low cost of these operations, determined, we appreciate, a radical change of landscape within Romanian cemeteries from the second-half of twentieth-century. Our studies in the cemeteries had focused only on the rock crosses that are still kept in the historical Banat, and especially in the Orthodox Diocese of Caransebes (large part of Caras-Severin country), due the concern for conservation and preservation initiated by a Bishop from Caransebes named Lucian Mic. The rock crosses from Caraş-Severin country that are kept nowadays, are dated from eighteenth to beginning of twentieth century. The Maltese rock crosses from the Diocese of Caransebes, dating mainly from eighteenth and nineteenth centuries are a living proof of the Christian tradition, a reminiscence of the influence of Western spirituality and not least, a wealth less studied in the horizon of scientific research in the field.
