			During the [[Renaissance]], necklaces in the shape of the Templar cross became common pieces of jewelery worn by many members of the Order, including the [[Portuguese Rite of the Templar Order\|Portuguese Templar]] [[Nuno Caro]],<ref name="ACSH">''[[Assassin's Creed: Shadows]]''</ref><ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Shadows – Tales of Iga]]'' – [[Assassin's Creed: Shadows – Tales of Iga Chapter 2\|Chapter 2]]</ref> and the [[Roman Rite of the Templar Order\|Italian Templar]] [[Paulino Massa]].<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Shadows – Tales of Iga]]'' – [[Assassin's Creed: Shadows – Tales of Iga Chapter 9\|Chapter 9]]</ref> As the Templars expanded their reach to new territories like [[Japan]], this practice was quickly adopted by several of the Order's new recruits, like [[Kimura Kei]] and [[Imagawa Tomeji]], who proudly displayed the Order's insignia on their clothing.<ref name="ACSH"/>

			This period of time also saw the greatest usage of [[Templar ring]]s, small pieces of jewelry displaying the Order's insignia. Typically bestowed upon new Templar recruits during their [[Initiation into the Templar Order\|induction]] into the Order,<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag]]'' – [[Mister Walpole, I Presume?]]</ref> these rings were designed to be inconspicuous to regular [[civilian]]s, but not to those already aware of the Templars' existence.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Forgotten Temple]]'' – [[Assassin's Creed: Forgotten Temple Episode 12\|Episode 12]]</ref><ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Syndicate]] – [[The Last Maharaja]]'' – [[A Good Shot]]</ref>

	By the [[France\|French]] [[French Revolution\|Revolution]], the Templars maintained their practice of hiding the symbol from the public by limiting its use to small items such as [[Templar pin]]s or only displaying it behind closed doors, such as the secret Templar office in [[François-Thomas Germain]]'s shop.
