The halo originated as the sun disc seen behind the head of the sun god, Apollo. Alexander the great spread the image with his conquering armies, right across the Near East and into India, where it was adopted as a symbol for depictions of Buddha.
The halo is no longer seen as pagan, nor as a symbol of the sun, but is used in art as a sign of holiness.
