Answer 1

Answer:

It is called a Reliquary.

Explanation:

Reliquary is used to refer to a container for holy relics. Saint Foy or Saint Faith was a young woman who was arrested during persecution of Christians; her legend says she refused to make pagan sacrifices even under torture by the Roman Empire. Her reliquary is very precious, a 33-½ inch wooden statue covered in gold and gemstones which keeps her skull.
