The inverted pentacle with a goat's head is called the Sigl of Baphomet. The term may have come from two Greek words, baphe and metis, meaning "absorption of knowledge." It has been called the Black Goat, Devil's Goat as well.
It is also now being used by the masons. It can be seen on their buildings and the emblems the put on their vehicles to identify each other.
Today, the Baphomet is widely used by religious Satanists.
The Church of Satan also uses a second symbol which is an infinity sign (a figure 8 on its side).
A Roman cross is placed on top with a second, longer cross piece added beneath the top cross piece.
