Arco Ganganelli
The Arch of Ganganelli () or Arco di Papa Clemente XIV is a triumphal arch that stands in the town of Santarcangelo di Romagna, Emilia-Romagna, Italy. It was constructed in 1772–1777 to celebrate the elevation in 1769 of the native Cardinal Lorenzo Ganganelli to become Pope Clement XIV. Designed by the architect Cosimo Morelli, the arch led into town through the via Emilia, and until the early 21st century, allowed cars to drive through. The monument was meant to have a marble statue of the pope atop the center, but the statue, sculpted by Antonio Canova, was instead used for the Tomb of Pope Clement XIV in the Santi Apostoli, Rome, Basilica of the Holy Apostles in Rome. Atop the arch is the papal coat of arms of Clement, which consist from top to bottom, of a papal tiara flanked by two keys, In the upper register are the crossed arms, symbol of the Franciscan order, to which Clement belonged. Below are three eight point stars over a ''trimount argent'' (three mountains), symb ...

Papal Tiara
The papal tiara is a crown that was worn by popes of the Catholic Church from as early as the 8th century to the mid–20th century. It was last used by Pope Paul VI in 1963, and only at the beginning of his reign. The name ''tiara'' refers to the entire headpiece, including the various crowns, circlets, and diadems that have adorned it through the ages, while the three-tiered form that it took in the 14th century is also called the triregnum or the triple crown, and sometimes as the triple tiara. From 1143 to 1963, the papal tiara was solemnly placed on the pope's head during a papal coronation. The surviving papal tiaras are all in the triple form, the oldest from 1572. A representation of the triregnum combined with two crossed keys of Saint Peter is used as a symbol of the papacy and appears on papal documents, buildings and insignia, and on the flag of Vatican City. Actual use of the papal tiara has declined since the reign of Pope Paul VI, the last pope to have a corona ...

C O A Clemante Xiv
C, or c, is the third letter of the Latin alphabet, used in the modern English alphabet, the alphabets of other western European languages and others worldwide. Its name in English is ''cee'' (pronounced ), plural ''cees''. History "C" comes from the same letter as "G". The Semites named it gimel. The sign is possibly adapted from an Egyptian hieroglyph for a staff sling, which may have been the meaning of the name ''gimel''. Another possibility is that it depicted a camel, the Semitic name for which was ''gamal''. Barry B. Powell, a specialist in the history of writing, states "It is hard to imagine how gimel = "camel" can be derived from the picture of a camel (it may show his hump, or his head and neck!)". In the Etruscan language, plosive consonants had no contrastive voicing, so the Greek ' Γ' (Gamma) was adopted into the Etruscan alphabet to represent . Already in the Western Greek alphabet, Gamma first took a '' form in Early Etruscan, then '' in Classical Etru ...
