In my antifascist queer novella LET THE MOUNTAINS BE MY GRAVE, I mention a traditional celebration from the Italian town of Cocullo - the Festa dei Serpari, which nowadays celebrates St Dominic, but has ties with the ancient cult of the goddess Angitia (who has quite an important role in my story 🐍)

Sacred snakes: fungal screening of the snakes collected for the Festa dei Serpari in Cocullo, Italy

A total of 143 snakes from four species (i.e., Elaphe quatuorlineata, Hierophis viridiflavus,...
