THE ROYAL ARCH JEWEL

    img22.gif

The design of the Jewel of the Royal Arch mason is as follows:-

Two interlaced equilateral triangles, constituting the symbol known as the Shield of David, set within a circle (the emblem of eternity).

Round the Circle run the words "SIT TIBI SCIRE SATIS SI TALIA JUNGERE POSSIS" (If thou canst unite such things thou knowest enough.)

On five sides of the two triangles are inscribed in three languages - Greek, Latin and English - the words "EYPHKAMEN, INVENIMUS, WE HAVE FOUND, CULTOR DEI, CIVIS MUNDI". (O, Worshipper of God, citizen of the World.) The sixth side is left blank.

In the Centre of the Jewel, within the intersection of the two triangles, is set the Keystone of the M.M.M.
