Decorated Saints

[Paul "Snapchap" Everest]

I'm not a big fan of The Daily Mail but this article on the decorated remains of saints is quite fascinating:

Well that just shows you that The Mail Online is completely different than the Mail we have on our kitchen table which has no mention of this interesting story.....why would you bury all those priceless jewels I wonder!
Some fancy skeletons!!

i wonder if those martyrs would have preferred that the jewels be sold and the money used to help the poor.
