Reliques (relics) in Reims Cathedral? Please help, im really struggling...>_>?

Relics are objects...not usually statues. Personal belongings of saints, bits and pieces of their bodies, like bones, teeth and hair,pieces of the true cross....these things are normally kept in a container called a reliquary. One I know of in Rhiems is the ampula, which was placed with a golden needle and a silver paten into a gl reliquary.
