EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable pottery sherd from North Africa, dating back to the 4th century AD. The ceramic piece bears an intriguing combination of letters that form an abbreviation for the name of Jesus Christ. Created by Roman artisans during a time when Christianity was gaining prominence, this artifact holds immense historical and religious significance. The sherd's intricate design features a prominent christogram, specifically the Chi-Rho symbol - a monogram formed by superimposing the first two letters (Chi and Rho) of "Christ" in Greek. This powerful emblem became widely recognized as a representation of Jesus Christ within early Christian communities. Preserved at the Iraq Museum in Baghdad, this ancient relic offers us a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of the Middle East and its profound influence on religious iconography. Its presence serves as a testament to how Christianity spread across Western Asia and North Africa during antiquity. As we admire this delicate potsherd, let us reflect upon its symbolic meaning and remember that it represents not only faith but also resilience in times of adversity. Through centuries of turmoil and change, this timeless symbol continues to inspire millions around the world with its message of hope and salvation.
