Description
Simon the Zealot was one of the most obscure among the apostles of Jesus. In art, Simon was traditionally martyred by being hung upside-down and sawn apart vertically through the middle, starting at the groin. The term "death by sawing" indicates the act of sawing a living person in half. Most often the victim was suspended upside down, most of the blood will go to the head. The torturers would saw into the victim's crotch, all of the blood in the head will oxygenate the brain so that the victim will not pass out as one normally would under such excruciating pain.
