Ichthys
Ichthys, often referred to as the Christian fish symbol, consists of two intersecting arcs that form the outline of a fish. This symbol has roots in early Christianity, where it served as a secret sign among believers to identify one another during times of persecution. The Greek word "ichthys" translates to "fish," and it is also an acronym for "Jesus Christ, God's Son, Savior." Today, the Ichthys is widely recognized and used to express Christian faith in various contexts, including jewelry, bumper stickers, and church decorations.
