An ancient legend, of the Bell of St. Michael is :
“ON THE ISLAND OF CAPRI THERE LIVED A SHEPHERD BOY, VERY POOR AND FATHERLESS, HE DIDN'T OWN ANY MATERIAL GOODS EXCEPT HIS SHEEP. ONE EVENING, AT DUSK, HE HAD STOPPED TO PICK SOME FLOWERS AND WHEN HE TURNED TO CALL THE SHEEP HE COULDN'T FIND HER ANYMORE. OUT OF DESPERATION, HOWEVER, HE SEEMED TO HEAR A DISAFT CHIMMING AND, THINKING IT WAS THE SOUND OF HIS SHEEP'S BELL, HE HEADED TOWARDS THE JINGLING. HE RUN BAREFOOT THROUGH THE BRACKERS AND OVER THE STONES UNTIL HE REACHED THE EDGE OF A RAVIGE. A SUDDEN LIGHT DAZZLED HIM: IT WAS SAINT MICHAEL ON HIS WHITE HORSE.
“MY CHILD” SAID THE SAINT TAKING A BELL FROM HIS NECK THAT HANGED ON HIS CHEST, “TAKE IT AND ALWAYS FOLLOW THE SOUND IT WILL SAVE YOU FROM ALL DANGER”.
THE SHEPHERD BROTHER BROUGHT THE GIFT TO HIS MOM AND THE BELL CAME OUT OF HIS POCKETS WRAPPED IN THE FRAME OF A COURT LEAF. FROM THEN HIS LIFE CHANGED FOREVER AND EVERY EARTHLY DESIRE WAS FULFILLED". Measures in cm : 3 x 2 5 (hight) weight in gr : 30
