St. Andrew, one of Jesus' apostles, is believed to have died by crucifixion in Patras, Greece. According to tradition, he was bound to an X-shaped cross, known as a saltire, rather than being nailed to it, which is why the cross is often associated with him. His martyrdom is thought to have occurred around AD 60. St. Andrew is the patron saint of Scotland, Russia, and various other countries.
