Silver amulet found in Frankfurt is oldest evidence of Christianity north of the Alps

Archaeologists have unearthed a small silver amulet in a roughly 1,800-year-old grave in what is now Frankfurt am Main. The inscription on the amulet is considered the oldest known evidence of Christianity north of the Alps, which could significantly reshape understanding of the religion's early spread in Europe. The site was part of the former Roman Empire.
