Snails were recognised in medieval times for their unusual strength, given that they were able to carry their home on their back.

    Four-and-twenty tailors went to kill a snail,

    The best man amongst them durst not touch her tail;

    She put out her horns like a little Kyloe cow;

    Run, tailors, run, or she’ll kill you all e’en now.
