Jay Altman of Columbia, S.C., recognized the latest mystery: “Gregory of Nin was a Croatian Catholic prelate who served as a medieval Bishop of Nin and strongly opposed the Pope and official circles of the Catholic Church. He introduced the Croatian language in religious services after the Great Assembly in 926 a.d. Until that time, services were held only in Latin not being understandable to a majority of the population. Not only was this important for Croatian language and culture, but it also made Christianity stronger within the Croatian kingdom. It is said that kissing the toe of the left foot of the statue, located in Split, Croatia, brings one good luck.” The photo came from Chuck Paul of Norcross after a recent trip to this area.
Among others recognizing this mystery were Susan Shenefield, Flowery Branch; George Graf, Palmyra, Va.; Stan Burns, Lawrenceville; Stewart Ogilvie of Rehobeth, Ala.; and Allan Peel of San Antonio, Tex.
