Medieval Word of the Day


Rosary: a Roman Catholic devotion consisting of a series of prayers spoken in a specific order; includes the Ave Maria and the Paternoster. Also a string of beads that helps the person praying keep track of the prayers.


(From the painting Medieval Pomanders with Rosary, 15th Century)
