>Firstly - I'm not a specialist in this field (but with an archaeological
>training) so apologies if my question seems completely naive...
>
>My queries are as follows:
>
>* Can anyone provide me with references - academic papers through to more
>synthetic texts - for studies on relics of the Saints (historical,
>archaeological, ethnographic, socialogical, whatever....)?
>
>* Tell me whether there has been any (successful?) attempt to catalogue
>relics - either for particular countires or on a pan-European basis and/or
>for particular categories of relic or for particular saints?
>
>For the record the query is one of personal interest prompted by recent
>travels in Italy and Spain.

>Many thanks
