When Constantinople stood as a Byzantine city Philip the father of Alexander the Great failed a siege by day and failed a night surprise. The crescent moon and stars appeared, exposing his warriors to the citizens. The Byzantines honored their protection of the city with a statue to Digna and made the crescent the city’s symbol.
