Abstract
The daughter of Jacopo Benincasa, a prosperous wool dyer and Lapa Piangenti, St. Catherine of Siena (1347–1380) was born on March 25 [1]. The twenty-third of twenty-five children, Catherine was a twin. Born to a mother in her early forties, Catherine and her sister Giovanna, were weak and lacked physical robustness [1–2]. Immediately after their birth they were baptized. Afterwards, Lapa decided to send the sickly Giovanna out to a wet nurse while she breast-fed Catherine. Giovanna died within a short time but Catherine gradually gained strength and became a robust child [1–2].
