I’m somewhat skeptical of emphatic statements about that long ago.

Actually the history of the use of the cross as a symbol is better known than a lot of stuff. And, we are discussing something that Roman historians noted also.

I am not arguing against your skepticism, but we are talking about a period when there is a written recorded history.

Google "Christian cross history" and see what comes up.

The evidence is likely significant and quite convincing.

I just wonder how long it went on covertly . . . and how much of that evidence would have remained over the centuries.

Thanks for the link.
