Happy #FridayThe13th! In earlier centuries, some people believed that the mummified hand of an executed criminal holding a candle made from the malefactor’s fat could render the person who carried it invisible. It was called the HAND OF GLORY. This example is from Whitby Museum.

I don't know a lot of archaeology, but i grew up in Sicily, and directions are "The hospital? Go straight until you see a late Ionic capital embedded in the wall, then take a left. When you get to a little park with Dressel 20 oil amphora fragments scattered in the flowerbeds you're getting close."
