description

The recent purchase of an authentic manuscript from Flavigny abbey referring to the translation of saints bodies gives an opportunity to assess significiance of relics into the cult of saints in the diocese of Autun (Burgundy) during the Middle Ages. Several data source of piety esspecially dedications, religious references in diplomatic acts, and calendars, gives an evidence of the evolution of devotion and even the recession of some cults among several clerics groups. Besides, those informations show the incidence of the cult of regional saints in construction of Autun diocese, wich is one of the larger dioceses in Burgundy.
