The tradition is quite old, but although its origin is unknown, it was alive in the 16th century, in the time of the Knights of St. John. At that time, however, animals were blessed only on the occasion of the feast of Saint Anthony the Abbot. Sat, 01 Jan 1994 00:00:00 GMT /library/oar/handle/123456789/36686 1994-01-01T00:00:00Z
