History of Christianity

Cross necklaces were the centre of the life of the Christians. Tertullian, one of the great church fathers mentioned the faithful followers of Christianity as the cross devotees. Great devotion of the Christians towards the Christ cross is defined as the symbol for Lord, St. Paulinus for Nola. Archaeologists found cross marks in the ancient civilizations between 2nd and the 5th centuries. Drawings as well as the etchings on the walls, and even in the catacombs at Rome, and the walls of the burial chambers of the first and second centuries, had cross symbols in many sites. As a matter of fact, Christianity history dates back even a thousand years before that.
