When people were crucified in those days, they nailed or roped 1 board horizontally to a tree which forms a cross (like an X) to the tree which is vertical. So, it is correct that it was a tree, and jesus carried the 1 horizontal board on his back and to his hands. Jesus didn't carry the entire thing with a post you dig and place in the ground, despite movies and media, but it was cumbersome as it was and torturous to carry after being beaten. Movies, media, and churches also portray the cross as neatly crafted with modern power saws, evenly cut pieces, perfectly aligned, but that's not reality. Just like Jesus wasn't purely white or black, and we don't know if he had a beard and long hair or not, or how tall or short or big he was. It's interesting how people tend to make up stuff.
