An Ottoman army was apocryphally frightened off by priests from St. Justine's waving this saint's skull over the walls of Rab, Croatia, either by his divine intercession or by making the enemy realize that the town was full of insane skull-removing priests.
An Ottoman army was apocryphally frightened off by priests from St. Justine's waving this saint's skull over the walls of Rab, Croatia, either by his divine intercession or by making the enemy realize that the town was full of insane skull-removing priests. Scholars identify this man with the Egyptian St. Minas. According to the Golden Legend, this man sought out a bandit after hearing a king say he feared the devil, but left after finding the bandit feared Jesus. Various translation errors led Orthodox iconographers to depict this man as a hulking giant with the head of a dog. A hermit told this man to use his large size to ferry people across a river. For 10 points, name this patron saint of travelers who thus became understandably known as "Christ-bearer."
