Available in Solid 14K Yellow Gold, White Gold, & Sterling Silver Saint Rosalia (11301166), also called La Santuzza or "The Little Saint", is the patron saint of Palermo, Sicily, El Hatillo,Venezuela, and Zuata, Anzoategui,Venezuela. According to legend, Rosalia was born of a Norman noble family that claimed descent from Charlemagne. On the cave wall she wrote "I, Rosalia, daughter of Sinibald, Lord of Roses, and Quisquina, have taken the resolution to live in this cave for the love of my Lord, Jesus Christ." In 1624, a horrible plague haunted Palermo, and during this hardship St Rosalia appeared first to a sick woman, then to a hunter to whom she indicated where her remains were to be found.
