They count that died the evangelist, in Acaya (smaller Asia), the image was buried with him. In the century IV, it was transferred, with the deceased, to Constatinopla and, from here, it was taken to Rome by the cardinal Gregorio, Pope's legacy Pelagio II. Once elected pontiff, Great Gregorio, exposed it in his oratory. The virgin one writes down their first miraculous intervention when the town of Rome, after acclaiming her with fervor to its step in procession for the streets of that city whipped by the pest, checked that the fatal epidemic disappeared while an angel appeared on the castle cleaning the blood of a sword, at the time that a choir of angels sang. Isidoro, Pope's transfer brother the image to Seville and he/she gave it to San Leandro, archbishop of the city. During the voyage, a strong storm calmed down and the image arrived harmless to the port fluvial hispalense, from there it was transferred to the main church, in which was worshipped until the Muslim invasion of the year 711 |
