The Byzantine Empire was established in the 4th century CE when the Emperor Constantine, also known as Saint Constantine, Christianized the Roman Empire and pronounced the city of Constantinople in Byzantium as the capital. The visual culture of this era demonstrates a synthesis of classical Greek, Roman, and Christian influences. Ornate crucifixes were used for processions of military and imperial display, as well as liturgical, and mounted within the church before the altar. The cross would have been familiar to all citizens, a universal and omnipresent symbol of the pious, Christian culture.
