Donna Concetta, conosciuta come la "capa che suda", è una delle figure di spicco del cimitero delle fontanelle. Questo teschio, a differenza di quelli adiacenti ricoperti di polvere, è sempe ben lucidato...la leggenda narra che Donna Concetta accumuli il sudore derivato dalla sofferenza e dalle fatiche delle anime del purgatorio, con cui è in comunicazione. Affinché possa essere conceduta una grazia è necessario toccare il teschio: se il cranio è bagnato la grazia verrà realizzata, se il cranio non suda è un cattivo segno e molto probabilmente non verrà realizzata la grazia.
