| | I remember that crucifixion originally was a not Roman torture meant to expose the victim, deprived of defense, until death by insects and hunger - torture was obtained by blocking his body and injuring him (like for Jesus) in order to have him bleeding, thus attracting insects. | | | The shape of the latter had its origin in ancient Chaldea, and was used as the symbol of the god Tammuz, being in the shape of the mystic Tau, the initial of his name. | | | Or the subsection on the Crucifixion could be in the Jesus Christ article, with links both ways to/from this one. |

| | Crucifixion Or 'Crucifiction' In Ancient Egypt? |
| | Crucifixion was commonly practiced from the 6th century BCE until the 4th century CE, when it was finally abolished in 337 CE by Constantine I. It was intended to serve as both a severe punishment and a frightful deterrent to others and was unanimously considered the most horrible form of death. | | | Crucifixion, an important method of capital punishment, particularly among the Persians, Seleucids, Jews, Carthaginians, and Romans [was practiced] from about the 6th century BC to the 4th century AD. | | | The Latin word crux was applied to the simple pole, and indicated directly the nature and purpose of this instrument, being derived from the verb crucio, "to torment", "to torture." The practice of crucifixion was finally abolished in 337 by Constantine I out of respect for Jesus Christ, whom he believed died on the cross. |

| | The crucifixion of Josephus' acquaintance who survived should not be projected to the crucifixion of Jesus. | | | The crucifixion of Jesus, who did not possess a gladiator's physique and stamina, did not commence but culminated when he was nailed to the cross. | | | Perhaps it is logical to assume that because Jesus had been the centre of attention for at least the preceding week he might have received more of the executioners' attention prior to the final acts of crucifixion. |

| | Crucifixion became a common form of execution in the ancient world, mainly by the Carthaginians, Persians, Seleucids, and of course The Romans who used it until the fourth century, when emperor Constantine abolished it. | | | Throughout the Bible, Jesus Christ is referred to as "The Lamb of God" (John 1:29, see also Passover and The Lamb Of God), which is a direct reference to the slaying of the Passover lamb that was always done by its shed blood, from someone actually killing it (Exodus 12:6-7). | | | There are two major schools of thought regarding how Christ died - that He simply died of Himself, or that He was killed by a Roman soldier with a spear. |
