Whenever Catholic and Orthodox believers hold a mass or prayer service outside the cathedral or church, they take with them the most valuable religious artifacts. In Catholic cathedrals and Orthodox churches, such items are put in a special vessel known as a reliquary monstrance.


An ancient Greek cylindrical vessel resembling a jar with a lid, which was called the Pyxis, served as the prototype for a reliquary monstrance. It was usually made of wood, more often – boxwood. Later, people began to create such vessels from baked clay. If a person was wealthy, their Pyxis was made of such precious materials as bronze and ivory, and decorated with different patterns, sometimes even with paintings.
