How did the Romans curcify people?
crucify. The word comes from "crux" meaning a cross or crossing point or intersection, and "affix" meaning attach to. Basically the method of executing a prisoner who had been sentenced to death meant that the convict would be nailed to a wooden cross and left to slowly die, outdoors, in full view of the people of the village. I assume that death would come from blood loss, or maybe because the person would not be able to breathe right while nailed to a cross with just his arms and feet holding all his body weight.

Is the Tau Cross a Christian or Pre-Christian cross?
The Tau Cross is shaped like a 'T' and it isn't 'pagan' in the sense that it is unChristian.It is almost certain that Jesus was crucified on a cross shaped in the traditional cross-shape. There are several reasons for this, including:The Romans used an upright stake ('monos stauros') onto which they hung the victim with arms outstretched on a crossbeam. The victim would carry the beam to the place of execution before being nailed to it through both wrists. The crossbeam had a hole carved in its middle that slid over the upright stake like a large mortice and tenon joint. The completed cross then looked like the traditional cross as we see in churches across the world (the 'stauros').Archaeological evidence points strongly to the cross-shaped cross being used in Jerusalem at the time of Christ and not the Tau, as evidence of crucified victims has been found in digs there.The Cross was a symbol of Christianity in the first century and was written about in the second century by the early Church Fathers who knew the disciples or their followers. If the Tau had been used to crucify Jesus, then this would be the symbol used and not the Cross.Crosses (in the traditional form) can be seen etched and gouged into the walls of the earliest catacombs dating from the early Churchwhere Christians hid for fear of persecution.In some parts of the Empire, the Tau cross was used - the victim simply being nailed to a T-shaped structure. However, this was not the version used in Jerusalem at the time of Christ.So the Tau Cross is not 'pagan' and, if Jesus had been crucified on such a shaped cross then it would be a 'T' shaped cross that would be the Christian symbol. But he wasn't, and so the traditional cross is adopted as the Christian symbol instead.
