Ichthys from the Greek word for fish is a symbol consisting of two intersecting arcs, the
ends of the right side extending beyond the meeting point so as to represent
the profile of a fish, used by early Christians as a secret Christian symbol
and has been in use since the days of the early church. It’s known colloquially as the "Jesus fish."
No one really knows who first came up
with the acronym ichtys, but
probably none of the apostles ever heard of it.
According to
tradition, ancient Christians, during their persecution by the Roman Empire in the first few centuries after Christ,
used the fish symbol to mark meeting places or to distinguish friends from
enemies.
