medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture

Eureka !  I think Abbot Coleman has it!  Stephaton was such an unusual name 
that I just tried Google for that single word and several hits came up.  One in 
particular which may interest you is at:
http://www.insecula.com/us/oeuvre/O0008417.html

It is a medieval artwork of the crucifixion showing Longinus, Christ, and 
Stephaton!

Although many of the discussions on this group are way over my head, and 
waaayyyyyyyyy out of my own time period of study, I have always been curious and 
some of the threads, like this one, cause me to spend quite a bit more time at 
this machine, looking up further on a topic "just because".  Sigh.  Wish the 
trivia in my head were marketable.  

Happy Thanksgiving to all on this side of the pond, and the other as well 
even though our dates aren't the same.
