The Staurogram was first used to abbreviate the Greek \u003cbr\u003eword for cross in very early New Testament manuscripts such as P66, P45 and P75, \u003cbr\u003ealmost like a nomen sacrum, and may visually have represented Jesus on the \u003cbr\u003ecross.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEphrem the Syrian in the 4th-century explained these two united letters stating \u003cbr\u003ethat the tau refers to the cross, and the rho refers to the Greek word \"help\" \u003cbr\u003ewhich has the numerological value in Greek of 100 as the letter rho has. In such \u003cbr\u003ea way the symbol expresses the idea that the Cross saves. The two letters tau \u003cbr\u003eand rho can also be found separately as symbols on early Christian ossuaries.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe tau was considered a symbol of salvation due to the identification of the \u003cbr\u003etau with the sign which in Ezekiel 9:4 was marked on the forehead of the saved \u003cbr\u003eones, or due to the tau-shaped outstretched hands of Moses in Exodus 17:11. The \u003cbr\u003erho by itself can refer to Christ as Messiah because Abraham, taken as symbol of \u003cbr\u003ethe Messiah, generated Isaac according to a promise made by God when he was one \u003cbr\u003ehundred years old, and 100 is the value of rho.:158\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Monogrammatic Cross was later seen also as a variation of the Chi Rho \u003cbr\u003esymbol, and it spread over Western Europe in the 5th and 6th centuries.In \u003cbr\u003eancient Roman religion, Victoria or Victory was the personified goddess of \u003cbr\u003evictory. She is the Roman equivalent of the Greek goddess Nike, and was \u003cbr\u003eassociated with Bellona. She was adapted from the Sabine agricultural goddess \u003cbr\u003eVacuna and had a temple on the Palatine Hill. The goddess Vica Pota was also \u003cbr\u003esometimes identified with Victoria.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUnlike the Greek Nike, the goddess Victoria (Latin for \"victory\") was a major \u003cbr\u003epart of Roman society. Multiple temples were erected in her honor. When her \u003cbr\u003estatue was removed in 382 CE by Emperor Gratianus there was much anger in Rome. \u003cbr\u003eShe was normally worshiped by triumphant generals returning from war.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlso unlike the Greek Nike, who was known for success in athletic games such as \u003cbr\u003echariot races, Victoria was a symbol of victory over death and determined who \u003cbr\u003ewould be successful during war.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVictoria appears widely on Roman coins, jewelry, architecture, and other arts. \u003cbr\u003eShe is often seen with or in a chariot, as in the late 18th-century sculpture \u003cbr\u003erepresenting Victory in a quadriga on the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin, Germany; \u003cbr\u003e\"Il Vittoriano\" in Rome has two.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cfont size=\"5\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFlavius Theodosius ( 11 January 347 – 17)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJanuary 395), also called Theodosius I and Theodosius the Great was Roman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEmperor from 379 to 395.
