In this particular application though, there is the visual representation of it that counts and is important for the CEREMONIAL aspects involved. That should remain the same.

I wonder what people swore on in the years 0AD to 1000AD?

From about 350 AD they swore on holy relics.

Although the item is usually just considered a stand in for God Himself.
