The Cross Calvary is an heraldic device depicting a Christian cross mounted upon three steps. This device is a reference to the Crucifixion of Jesus, an image central to Christianity.

Although the Cross Calvary is undeniably a period device, it is not permitted in SCA heraldry owing to its overt religious overtones.
