This glittering gold head represents Saint Eustace and was thought to contain relics of the Christian saint. Today is his commemoration feast day in the Christian calendar. According to legend, Eustace was a general under the emperor Trajan (r. AD 98–117) who was converted to Christianity while hunting, after seeing a vision of a stag with a luminous crucifx between its antlers. Some time later, after victory in battle, he refused to join in thanksgiving to the Roman gods and was burnt to death. This reliquary was made in Basel around 1200. #Basel #relic #reliquary #gold #gemstones #Museum #BritishMuseum
