Long before the birth of Christ, sun worshipers wore
rings of feathers on their heads, presumably to represent
rays of sunlight and identity the wearer with the sun god.
It is believed that this led to the idea of depicting divine
beings with circles of light about their heads. It is also
probable that this led kings and queens to wear crowns.
