Part I - Crucified Women in Greco-Roman Antiquity
Preface
In this thread i try to poit out the evidence for the crucifixion of women in the ancient world.
In antiquity crucifixion was considered one of the most brutal and shameful modes of death. Yet in classical art usually we see a male figure affixed to the cross; nevertheless, the idea of a female figure on the cross is arousing the interest of Christians internationally.
