Crescentinus
Saint Crescentinus ((イタリア語:San Crescentino, Crescenziano)) (died June 1, 303) is the patron saint of Urbino whose feast day is celebrated on June 1. Venerated as a warrior saint, he is sometimes depicted on horseback, killing a dragon, in the same manner as Saint George. However, as Martin Davies writes, "S. Crescentino’s story, so far as I am aware, excludes a Princess or other female victim."〔Martin Davies, "Uccello's 'St George' in London," ''Burlington Magazine'', Vol. 101, No. 678/679 (Sep. - Oct., 1959), pp. 308-315〕
The coin known as the ''armellino'' (and popularly as the ''volpetta'') issued by the duke of Urbino, Francesco Maria I della Rovere, featured Saint Crescentinus on horseback.〔:it:Monete italiane medioevali〕
==Legend==
Crescentinus is traditionally said to have been a Roman soldier who converted to Christianity. To escape the persecutions of Diocletian, he fled to Umbria, and found refuge at ''Thifernum Tiberinum'' (the present-day Città di Castello). His defeat of a dragon led to a successful evangelization of the region together with his companions. His mission was confined particularly to the Tiber valley and the ancient ''Thifernum Tiberinum''. He was subsequently beheaded.
