She is celebrated on February 5th and it is a custom to make a cake in the shape of hand or of breast. Born in Catania in Sicily, she was very beautiful and the Roman proconsul Quinten fell in love with her. He begged her to marry him but she refused. Then he called on a woman who was considered as distracting the girls, but this one failed. Quinten placed her under arrest and tortured Agathe unsuccessfully. In a jealous rage, he made her two breasts cut, but in a movement of protection she had a cut hand. To the surprise of the proconsul, the next day, Agathe had found the hand and its breasts. To put an end to this, he made her burn. But when the fire was lit, an earthquake and an eruption shook the island. Sainte Agathe "arrived" in Savoie where she was used against the fires in villages and she also became the boss of the young mothers and the nursemaids.
