This study traces the rise of the cult of St Stephen in Jerusalem in the fifth century, exploring such episodes as the fabrication of his relics, the construction of a grand basilica in his honour, and the multiplication of feast days, as a conscious attempt to position Stephen as their patron saint and embodiment of Christian identity and power.
