Pig for the Dead In Andorra, on January 17th, Saint Anthony is celebrated by the Encants, the putting up for auction of morsels of pig, the proceeds of which are converted into mass meant for souls in Purgatory. This kind of ceremony is widely known in Southern Europe and is based on the mediating qualities of the Saint and of the pig who move about between this world and the next. That day, one particular morsel - the foot - gains in value : this part is dedicated to the Saint and to the Dead, all the more so as young boys choose a bone in order to make a bull-roarer, an explicit receptacle of the voices of the dead. However, this little bone, which must be kept, is also a seed for Resurrection. This belief stems from and is justified by the life of Saint Anthony the Hermit, the mythical founder of Christian burial
