The Patron of All
[h3]Are you wondering who this mysterious, hooded, spectral-looking man is...?[/h3]
He is none other than the apostle Santiago, whose apparitions during the time of the conquest, riding a splendid white horse, astonished all of those who were present.
Santiago is identified as the patron saint of the conquest since the Spanish army entrusted their victory to him.
In ancient writings are recorded Santiago's apparitions, depicting him in shining armor, wielding a sword, with a flowing cloak around his shoulders.
The saint has also a great significance among Mexican people and in a great part of Latin America, it is said that he appeared in Mexico, during the conquest, in the following sites:
- Centla, currently Tabasco State in 1519;
- Pedro de Alvarado in Tenochtitlán in 1520;
- To the troops of Nuño de Guzman, during the the Battle of Tetlán, Jalisco, in 1530;
- Querétaro, during the conquest of the Chichimecas.
Long after the conquest, he went from being the apostle of the conquerors to being the apostle of the indigenous, patron saint of rain and harvest.
