Saint Piatusとは 意味・読み方・使い方

Saint Piatus of Tournai (also Piaton, Platon, Piat, Piato,) (died ca. 286) was a Belgian saint. He was a native of Benevento, and is traditionally said to have been sent by the pope to evangelize the cities of Chartres and Tournai. Tradition also states that he was ordained by Dionysios the Areopagite. He was martyred under Maximian, by having the top of his skull sliced off. He may be recognized in depictions holding the sliced portion of his skull. Saint Eligius later discovered Piatus' relics and made a reliquary for them.
