Sweatshirt - St. James the Greater, Apostle of Compostela by A. Olivas

St. James was called the “Greater” to distinguish him from his brother James (the Lesser) who was younger. Both were disciples and apostles of Christ. The name Santiago is a Spanish corruption of San Diego, St. James. According to tradition Santiago preached in Spain and although he died in the Holy Land his body was miraculously transported to Spain where it was buried at Compostela. The cathedral built at Compostela became the greatest pilgrimage site in all of Spain and Europe.
