Abstract:
Small containers known as
panagiaria
, designed to hold a particle of bread, or
panagia
, elevated in honor of the Virgin in a paraliturgical rite, have never been the subject of a comprehensive study. The aim of the present paper is to address this lacuna by offering some new insights into the patronage and ritual use of these objects. See the complete abstract:
