 | | Mary Magdalene, which probably means "Mary of Magdala," a town on the western shore of the Lake of Tiberias, is described in the New Testament as a follower of Jesus. |
 | | Mary Magdalene as a Roman Catholic saint whose relics were to be venerated at Saint Maximin la Sainte Baume, Provence became the occasion for such throngs of pilgrims that the great Basilica was erected from the mid 13th century, one of the finest Gothic (see illustration) churches in the south of France. |
 | | Finally, Mary's presence at the Crucifixion and Jesus's tomb, while hardly conclusive, is at least consonant with a role as grieving wife and widow, although if that were the case Jesus might have been expected to make provision for her care as well as for his mother Mary. |
