On the cover of Charles Hartshorne's *Creative Synthesis and Philosophic Method* published by SCM Press (London 1970) there is this symbol
A Google image search suggests that this is called a Christus Rex, made up of a crown at the top, the cross and a circle below (my interpretation). Am I correct in saying this? What does each part mean, especially the circle? Does anyone know the origin of this symbol? I could not find any direct documentation of this symbol. Any reference highly appreciated
