- Davle, Praha-západ district, Central Bohemian region - adopted
8 Jun
2004. This is the head of St. John the Baptist, who was beheaded
by King Herod Antipas, at the request of his stepdaughter Salome, who had
performed the dance of veils before him. St. John apparently had rebuked
her mother, Herodias, for adulterous behavior, and it was Herodias who
told Salome to request St. John's head on a plate from Herod.
