Saint George (died 303), also known as George of Lydda, was a Roman soldier who served as a member of the Praetorian Guard during the reign of Roman Emperor Diocletian. After his refusal to recant his Christian faith, George was sentenced to death and came to be venerated as a saint.[1]
By the 870s, alleged pieces of his personal set of armor were scattered in Anglo-Saxon England, later recovered by the Viking shieldmaiden Eivor Varinsdottir after raiding several river-bound locations.[2]
In 2013, William Miles included the story of Saint George slaying a dragon in his codex as a clue for Gavin Banks[3] This led the crew of the Altaïr II to Moscow, Russia, where Saint George is featured on the city's coat of arms.[4]
