NEIM: It's an ancient Anglo-Saxon abbreviation for:
"My grandmother went to Ireland and all I got was this lousy crucifix"
Seriously, if this inscription bears Roman lettering, it must be remembered thatthe letter "I" really stand for the letter "J" (and if you saw Indiana Jones and the Holy Grail, you'd know this!).
So what is the chance, do you think, of NEIM simply being the Anglo-Saxon rendering of the Latin "INRI" (Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews") usually found on crucifixes?
