===Origin/meaning===
The gold St. Catherine's Wheel with silver spikes, is the symbol of St. Catherine of Alexandria, the patroness of the Diocese. St. Catherine of Alexandria was chosen to be the principal patroness because of the frequent kidnappings (dinaguit) of maidens by Moro pirates from the south. A legend goes that the saint herself went around at the time to patrol the coasts which is why her clothes (the statue on the High Altar of the church) are riddled with brambles and thorns.
