Description

In Raiano, Italy, the feast of S. Venanzio is celebrated every year. Beside the official celebrations, the most secret and oldest ceremony is the "Cult of Stones": the devotees enter the caves where the saint used to live according to tradition, and rub their bodies on the stones to heal from evil.
