===Folklore=== Sicilians pray to Saint Onuphrius when they have lost something. The prayer has many variants but it generally mentions the miraculous properties of Saint Onuphrius' hair. It is widely accepted that repeating the prayer whilst looking for something like keys, a misplaced ring, or anything else, will greatly help in finding it sooner.{{Citation needed|date=January 2012}} St Onophrius' remains (Reliquary) are held in a sanctuary at [[Sutera]] (Sicily) where a feast is held in his honor every 1st Sunday of August and the saint's remains are carried around the town with a priest, marching band and pilgrims.{{Citation needed|date=July 2023}}
