Reliquary

Antonio discovered that the reliquary was empty.

The exhibit, called "Eternal Ancestors: The Art of the Central African Reliquary," sheds light on the history and traditions of the region.

“… There is an ivory virgin of the fourteenth century. I once found a buyer for that piece, but the old boy would not sell it.[…]The other piece—the one that concerns us—is known as the Borgia reliquary.”

And whether you think of those little cans as intellectual puzzles or reliquaries or scams, there are surprises inside.
