ABOUT
The only sacred relic with reference to the earthly presence of the Virgin Mary, the Holy Belt, is preserved (partly) in the Holy Monastery of Vatopedi at Mount Athos. The Agia Zoni (Holy Belt) was woven by the Virgin Mary herself using camel hair.
After the Dormition of the Virgin Mary, the Agia Zoni (Holy Belt) was safely kept with devotion by two poor and pious women who took care of the Virgin Mary.
The emperor Arcadius (395-408 AD) brought it to Constantinople and placed it in a reliquary naming it "Holy Remains".
