Symbolism and appliance of the icon pendant

Artemy was a general of ...the Roman Empire and a governor of Egypt. He is considered a saint by the Catholic and the Orthodox Churches, with the name of Artemius of Antioch. Artemius was an Egyptian by birth and a chief commander under Emperor Constantine the Great. One year later Constantius was succeeded by his cousin Julian, who was a Pagan. The people of Alexandria accused Artemius of having demolished their temples and broken down their idols, and Julian condemned him to death. Artemius was beheaded in 362 in the city of Antioch.

This icon can be worn on the breast, comfortably hidden under the clothes. It is especially useful for your beloved person, who serves in military forces or can be in any dangerous situation. One more interesting fact: St Artemius is invoked by those suffering from hernias.
