Ichthys

The ichthys or ichthus (/ˈɪkθしーたəs/), from the Greek ikhthýs (ἰχθύς, "fish") is a symbol consisting of two intersecting arcs, the ends of the right side extending beyond the meeting point so as to resemble the profile of a fish. The symbol was adopted by early Christians as a secret symbol. It is now known colloquially as the "sign of the fish" or the "Jesus fish".
