Procopius - Roman Usurper: 365-366 A.D. Procopius took part in the emperor Julian's campaign against the Persian Empire in 363. On his mother's side, Procopius was cousin of Emperor Julian. Both authors agree that the sign was not readily understandable as denoting Christ, which corresponds with the fact that there is no certain evidence of the use of the letters chi and rho as a Christian sign before Constantine.
