Constantine Victory Arch

Constantine was an important figure in Roman and Christian history. Because Constantine established one of the capitals of the Roman Empire in Constantinople, we can say the Roman Empire didn't fall until Byzantium fell, almost a millennium after Rome proper. Constantine, himself a pagan, became the first Roman emperor to patronize Christianity. About.com's Atheism Guide has put online a gallery of pictures of the Victory Arch of Constantine.
