The Ichthys — the fish symbol — was used by early Christians in Rome during the first and second centuries as a secret mark of recognition, drawn in sand or carved into stone to identify one another during periods of persecution. It is among the earliest surviving symbols of a community defined by what it chose to carry in silence (Finegan, J., The Archaeology of the New Testament, Princeton University Press, 1969).
