"The crucifix has symbols of the Passion: a hammer for the nails of the cross, a halo for the Crown of Thorns, a jug symbolizing the Last Supper, cords for binding which recall the scourging at the Pillar, the spear used at Calvary, a cock and pot which illustrates an early apocryphal legend relating to Judas, the betrayer, and a roasting cock which suddenly came to life and crowed, thus prophesying the Resurrection, three nails used for the crucifix. Small marks along the side of the corpus indicate a ladder, both used in the crucifixion and by which we ascend to heaven." (from Wikipedia)
