单词	santo
释义	santo /ˈsantəʊ / noun (plural santos) (In Mexico and Spanish-speaking areas of the south-western US) a religious symbol, especially a wooden representation of a saint: I asked Quiroz about his mother and the santos she used to sell - saints that could cure illness or a broken heart... For both Fiesta Sunday and All Saints Day, we use santos (painted wood panels of saints) and bultos (carved wooden statues of saints) on the altar. Many Dominicans believe that the Catholic saints possess a kind of magical power, and express this belief in santos cults. Rather than wait for deliveries of artwork for churches and shrines, an enterprising lot of wood-carvers began carving and painting santos, or religious images, a tradition that continues in northern New Mexico. Origin Spanish or Italian.
