In this study, the author analyzes silver reliquaries decorated with figures of Christian themes. The book offers a detailed picture of the emergence of a cult of relics, which became a significant asset of the church in the establishment of pilgrimage centers and local areas of hagiographical heritage, first in Italy, and later in other places in Europe and North Africa.
