<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Darkwing Manor, post: 4424613, member: 738&quot;]The St. George mythos got very tangled over millennia.&nbsp; Is he slaying a &#039;dragon&#039;? The Devil? Enemies of the State? Enemies of Christianity? Witches? It could even depict St. Demetrius, also portrayed in near-identical horse-hero mode. I saw them side-by-side in old churches in the Cyclades. The distinction there was George rode a white horse and St. Dem a red one. OR George is slaying a dragon and Demetrius a human, AKA Maximiam. My rather fuzzy point here is.. don&#039;t take the symbolism too literally, as far as origin and usual suspects. The more I learn, the less I know for certain. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/confused.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":confused:" unselectable="on" /> [ATTACH=full]378073[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
