Ichthys Sterling Silver Necklace View Enlarged Image
This design of intersecting curves was perhaps the earliest symbol of Christianity, possibily as early as the first centry AD. It was a time when the persecution of Christians in the Roman Empire was at its height, and secrecy among followers was paramount.

Interpretations vary to explain its use and meaning, though its antiquity is in no doubt.

A fish would be an obvious choice of symbol for Christians when referred to so frequently in the Gospels.

Most interesting perhaps is the acronym created by the Greek word for fish; Greek being the working language of many provinces of the eastern Roman Empire. The five Greek letters which form this word, also form an acronym for the Greek phrase (Latinized as): Jesus, Christ, God, Son, Saviour.

Sterling Silver Ichthys and 18" sterling silver chain.
