Although hanging was a less common form of execution in the Roman Empire that did occur, a even more common form of execution was crucifixion--which is securing the arms and/or feet of the condemned to a tree or T-shaped post; unable to hold up his or her weight indefinitely, the condemned would eventually suffocate. Christians (among others) were hung, crucified, beheaded, and in many cases put out into colliseums to be eaten alive by wild animals.

How did Romans handle Christians that didn't worship Roman gods?
The ancient Romans typically absorbed the deities and religions of the people they took over, since they perceived that this helped the government remain stable. In 64 AD, however, issues with judaism and the sole god became an issue with the Romans. Nero scapegoated the Christians as causing the Great Fire of Rome and from then on, persecutions of Christians and Jews continued until about the 300s. There were areas where Christians were accepted, and there was no issue.
Why were the Romans so accepting of Christianity?
AnswerWhereas some people seem to assume that the ancient Romans spent all their time harrassing and persecuting the Christians, this question seems to assume that the ancient Romans were perpetually friendly towards the Christians. The truth seems to be somewhere in the middle.Some Romans and others in the early Roman empire did have concerns with Christians. After all, Christians refused to worship the ancient gods, which made them guilty of the crime of atheism. But apart from this it is in the nature of polytheistic religions to be tolerant towards other religious beliefs. When you do not have to spend your time defending the integrity of your god as the only god (because to the Romans, there were many gods, and no one even knew how many) you can easily be tolerant towards any one who comes along with news of a new god.
