The upright post was usually a permanent fixture. The convicted criminal would have carried the horizontal crossbar through the city as part of the humiliation. It wasnโ€™t uncommon for the man to have been beaten severely before carrying that wooden beam on his shoulders, as Jesus had been. Jesus of Nazareth bore that cross all the way to called Golgotha, the Hill of the Skull, an area of higher elevation to make the execution more visible.
