The stag on this pendant has a cross between its antlers and this image represents a Catholic devotion to the safety provided by St. Hubert to hunters.
Hubertus or Hubert (c. 656 – 30 May 727 A.D.) was a Christian saint who became the first bishop of Liège in 708 A.D. He is the patron saint of hunters, mathematicians, opticians, and metalworkers. Known as the "Apostle of the Ardennes", he was called upon, until the early 20th century, to cure rabies using the traditional Saint Hubert's Key.
