Ignatius Castellaneta was a Christian in 250 A.D.
History[edit]
Jason Momoa told the story of Ignatius Castellaneta at the San Castellaneta Festival. In 250 A.D. Brother Ignatius Castellaneta refused to recant his Christian faith so the Romans chipped off his head, then his arms, legs and toes. They then shot him with arrows made of frozen snakes and replaced his eyes with chocolate-covered pistachios. However, Ignatius Castellaneta still refused to recant, so they boiled his bones in sparkling cherry wine. This is why Brother Castellaneta is now remembered by eating spumoni at the San Castellaneta Festival.
