"Crucifix" and "Crucifixion" are like the mantras of Christianity whose central philosophy is Jesus died upon the Cross to relieve the world of its sins and both these words "Crucifix" and "Cross" have their origins in the Ancient Sanskrit language.
"Kru" is a root from the language of Sanskrit whose meaning is related to "sound" formed around the root "Ru" meaning "sound" "noise" "cry" "scream" "hurt" and this becomes "Krud" meaning "anger" and "Krura" meaning "cruel" "harsh" "beastly" and the source of the word "Cruel".

"Kru" also becomes the Sanskrit "Krus" whose meaning is to "cry" to "weep" to "lament" and this then becomes the Latin "Crux" whose secondary meaning is "Cross" and whose primal meaning is a device which was used for torture.
~
"Krus" meaning to "cry" to "weep" to "lament" which becomes the Latin "Crux" develops into the Latin "Cruciare" whose meaning is to "torture" to "torment" and this then becomes the words "Crucifix" and "Crucifixion" the central theme of Christianity.
~
"Krus" meaning to "cry" to "lament" to "weep" which becomes the Latin "Crux" then becomes the word "Cross" whose origin is not based upon some geometrical pattern but a word whose origin is describing an instrument of torture.
~
The first "Cross" to be used by the Romans was simply a pole hammered into the ground which served as a stake upon which they hung people and the Latin word to describe this was "Crux" an instrument of torture which later developed into the "Cross".
~
"Crux" was used by the Romans to hang people and eventually it was used upon Jesus Christ which then became the symbol of Christianity and its said that even architecture and streets were influenced by the shape of the "Cross" seeing round and curved shapes as pagan.

“The word cross was introduced to English in the tenth century as the term for the instrument of the torturous execution of Christ (gr. stauros', xy'lon), gradually replacing rood, ultimately from Latin crux, via Old Irish cros. Originally, both "rood" and "crux" referred simply to any "pole," the later shape associated with the term being based in church tradition, rather than etymology." New World Encyclopaedia.
~
"The word ( cross ) can nowadays refer to the geometrical shape unrelated to its Christian significance from the fifteenth century. "Crux" in Latin means cross, and it was a Roman device of torture on which they nailed a person to a wooden cross, an act called crucifying, and let the person die of asphyxiation while hanging from the cross." New World Encyclopaedia.
