Image description

NAPLES ARCHIBISHOP MICHELE GIORDANO HOLDS A GLASS VIAL WITH A POWEDERY SUBSTANCE WHICH SUPERSTITIOUS BELIEVE IS THE BLOOD OF ST GENNARO. Naples Archibishop Cardinal Michele Giordano holds a glass vial with the powdery substance which many Neapolitans revere as the dried blood of their patron St Gennaro at the end of a ceremony in the Naples cathedral September 19. The blood liquefied after 90 minutes of prayer in a twice-yearly miracle. Superstitious Neapolitans believe that if the blood of the fourth century St. Gennaro fails to liquefy, or takes a long time to do so, disaster is at hand.Italian scientists have confirmed the substance is blood but have not discovered why it liquefies regularly.
