When we were touring Kolossi castle, I noticed a four sector coat of arms on one of the outer walls. The multiple sectors is what caught my eye. It’s is a marble slab, in which four shields can be seen. The center coat of arms contains four quadrants, also called escutcheon. The center escutcheon depicts the coat of arms of the Lusignans of Cyprus. The upper left section, depicts the emblem of Jerusalem, which is a cross with four smaller crosses in each quadrant, the same crest cane be found at many other churches, included the church of Saint Lazarus. (See my other post). In the upper right section, depicted is the coat of arms of the old Lusignan, which is a rearing lion and striped rectangle. Finally, the bottom two emblems represent Cyprus and Armenia. The four together symbolize unity, because when built around 1393, the king of Cyprus was also the king of Jerusalem and Armenia. On the sides of this center shield, there are the coat of arms of two grand masters of the order of Saint John of Jerusalem. The right side is the coat of Jacques de Milli, and on the right, of Jean de Lastic. Finally on the bottom is the coat of arms of Louis of Magnac, who was the Hosptallers commander when the castle was built. You can find his coat of arms carved into the castle walls throughout the castle as well. I found them On the fire places, and when returning with my family it became like an Easter egg hunt to see where else we could find them.
