Did patrician families of Rome used something similar to crests?
#3
Thank you Nathan.

What a pity, would be interesting if families would have some specific symbols or figures as a sort of crest.
Do we know what symbols on their signet rings famous Romans used?

I only saw mentions about following persons and the symbols of their signet ring:
Caesar- Venus Victrix
Augustus- Sphinx, later head of Alexander the great and more later his own head
Pompey: Lion with sword
Daniel
