The Tarasque is the dragon to which, according to legend, the southern French town of Tarascon owes its name. In the 12th century, the lore spread about the Tarasca, the monster conquered by Saint Martha (finding of the Martha relics in 1187, rebuilding of the church of Sainte-Marthe consecrated in 1197). To this day, the taming of the dragon by the Virgin is celebrated every year at Pentecost with a parade.

Photos from the day when US government nuked Mississippi, 1964
Mississippi’s Tatum Salt Dome in rural Lamar County near Hattiesburg was the site of two nuclear test explosions in the mid-1960s.
The Salmon test on Oct. 22, 1964 and the Sterling test on Dec. 3, 1966, were conducted to help determine whether and how nuclear test yields could be disguised through “decoupling” and how well such blasts could be detected. #projectdribble
