Romans typically inscribed the crime for which the person was being crucified above their heads, often on a wooden board called a titulus. This inscription served as a public display of the reason for the execution and acted as a warning to others. In the case of Jesus, the inscription read "Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews," as mentioned in the New Testament. This practice highlighted the criminal charges and reinforced the authority of Roman law.
