Jesus is often depicted on a cross that holds him high above the crowds which was probably not likely to happen. In Judea trees tend to be short and not particularly straight. Plus making a square cross would require hand sawn lumber that if they were going to put that much work into some wood they would build somthing with it besides a cross. Also try lifting a pole with even a 100 lb (45kg) woman attached to one end high enough to get sufficient wood into a hole and you can see how difficult that would be.
THT, Inc. does not have these issues in today's crucifixion as he has a generous supply of kiln dried cedar and a buff crew of assistants to hoist the cross...
So the question is...
You have been condemned to death on the cross. Would you find it worse to be high above the crowd as in Eulalia's crucifixion...
...somewhat lower and and more accessible as in Messaline's....
or even lower where you are at eye level with those who crucified you and now taunt you in you agony?
You thoughts????
