When the martyr pontiff Methodius gave his “Banquet of Virgins” to the Church, about the end of the third century, it is on the brow of the virgin of Iconium that he placed the fairest of the crowns distributed at the banquet of the Spouse.
Wakati shahidi papa Methodius alitoa yake “”Karamu ya Virgins”” kwa Kanisa, kuhusu mwisho wa karne ya tatu, ni juu ya paji la uso na bikira wa Ikonio kwamba yeye kuwekwa mbora taji kusambazwa katika karamu ya Mke.
