Santo Domingo was a 13th century Castilian Augustinian priest who founded a new order, the Dominicans, to combat the Albigensian heresy. According to one legend the Virgin Mary appeared to Domingo and gave him the rosary as an aid in contemplative prayer. The popularity of the rosary spread throughout Europe and the rest of the world and continues today. The Dominicans are known as the “dogs of God”, a play on the Latin “domini canes.”
