Biblical Characters and Traditional Personifications

1. Matusalém (Methuselah) - bearded and bent with age, he is depicted as riding a cart and looking

preoccupied with toasting grains of sand in a pan over a fire. This is a reminder that the world is

transient and will end up like the dust which he is toasting.

2. Reyna Banderada (Queen with a Banner) - a young lady dressed in a long red gown, bearing a

yellow pennant. She represents the arrival of Christianity.

3. Aetas - represents the dark-skinned indigenous peoples of the Philippines such as the Aeta and Ati.

These aboriginalgroups predate the ancestors of today's majority Malayo-Polynesian Filipinos by tens

of thousands of years.

4. Reyna Mora (Queen Moor) - represents Muslim Filipinos, owing to Mary's status in Islam and mention

in the 19th sura(chapter) of the Qur'an. Islam arrived in the Philippines two centuries before Christianity

and today has the second most number of adherents in the country.

5. Reyna ng Saba (Queen of Sheba) - represents the unnamed queen who visited King Solomon and was

overwhelmed by his wisdom, power, and riches. She carries a jewelry box. The Queen of Sheba is

further associated with the Santacruzan via her inclusion in the Golden Legend, in which she discerns

the provenance of the True Cross.

6. Rut at Noemi (Ruth and Naomi) - daughter-in-law and mother-in-law, and the ancestresses of King

David and Jesus Christ.

7. Reyna Judít (Queen Judith) - represents the Biblical widow Judith of Bethulia, who saved her city from

the Assyrians by slaying the cruel general Holofernes. Also known as "Infanta Judít", she carries the

head of her conquest in one hand and a sword in the other.

8. Reyna Ester (Queen Esther) - the Jewish queen of Persia, who spared her people from death at the hands

of Haman through her timely intervention with King Xerxes. She carries a sceptre.

9. Cleopatra - represents Cleopatra VII Philopator, the famous last pharaoh of Ancient Egypt. Her male

escort is often taken to represent Mark Antony.

10.Samaritana/Sta. Photina (The Female Samaritan) - the woman at the well (traditionally named Photini)

with whom Christ conversed with. She carries a jug on her shoulder.

11.Sta. Verónica - the woman who wiped the face of Jesus who bears her Veil, which in traditional

Hispanic iconography has three miraculous imprints of the Holy Face of Jesus instead of one.

12.Tres Marías (Three Marys) - each Mary holds a unique attribute associated with the Entombment of

Christ:

Sta. María Magdalena (St Mary Magdalene) - a bottle of perfume, as Catholic tradition once

conflated her with Mary of Bethany who wiped Jesus' feet;

The Virgin Mary - a handkerchief, for she is in mourning;

Sta. María de Cleofás (Mary, the mother of James, wife of Clopas) - bears a bottle of oil, alluding to

her role as one of the Myrrhbearers.

13.Reyna Fé (Queen Faith) - symbolises Faith, the first of the theological virtues. She carries a cross.

14.Reyna Esperanza (Queen Hope) - symbolises Hope, the second theological virtue. She carries an anchor.

15.Reyna Caridád (Queen Charity) - symbolises Charity, the third theological virtue. She carries a red-

coloured heart.

16.Reyna Sentenciada (Queen Convicted) - has her hands bound by a rope, she stands for the Early

Christians and in particular the virgins, who were martyred for the Faith. She is sometimes accompanied

by two Roman soldiers.

Marian Titles

Each figure in this group alludes to a title of the Virgin Mary (usually found in the Litany of Loreto) or to a figure associated with her. Each letter of the angelic salutation "AVE MARÍA" is borne by an "angel"—a girl wearing a long white dress and wings.

1. Reyna Abogada (Queen Advocate/Lawyer) - defender of the poor and the oppressed, she wears a

black mortarboard cap, Graduation gown, and carries a large book. Her appearance is a representation

of Mary, Help (Advocate) of Christians. In some Santacruzan processions, the figure of

the Doctora ("female doctor") also makes an appearance, which may allude to "Mary, Health of the

Sick".

2. Reyna Justícia (Queen Justice) - a personification of the "Mirror of Justice", her attributes are a

weighing scale and a sword.

3. Divina Pastora (Divine Shepherdess) - bears a shepherd's staff.

22.Reyna de las Flores (Queen of Flowers) - The Queen of the Flores de Mayo. She carries a bouquet of

flowers.

23.Reyna Emperatríz (Queen Empress) - this is another representation of Saint Helena, this time alluding to

the imperial Roman title of Augusta (meaning 'empress' or 'queen mother') which Constantine had

bestowed upon her.

24.Reyna Elena (Queen Helena) - always the last member of the procession, she is the actual

personification of Helena of Constantinople, whose Invention of the True Cross is symbolised by her

attribute: a small cross or crucifix that she carries in her arms. This considerably prestigious role is

usually awarded to the most beautiful girl participating in the pageant. In some communities, the

identity of the maiden playing Reyna Elena is a closely guarded secret until the event itself, while other

places are a bit more accommodating, boasting of three Reynas Elenas in their Santacruzan.

Constantíno - the escort of Reyna Elena representing the Emperor Constantine, who is almost

always played by a small boy in princely raiment.
