  1. Barbarous name

    A barbarous name is a meaningless or seemingly meaningless word used in Magic paranormal magic rituals . The term barbarous comes from the Greek barbaroi meaning those who do not follow Greek customs, barbarian . Often these names were derived from foreign sources and acquired their barbarous nature from the magician s lack of understanding of that language. One example includes the meaningless magical curse words frequently employed on Roman defixiones , or curse tablets of the sort which were thrown in sacred spring waters like those found in Aquae Sulis , the Roman site of Bath, England. This type of word, such as Bazagra , Bescu and Berebescu , are seemingly of Etruscan origin, and were intended to lend magical power to the curse. These curses were frequently intended to acquire a divinity s aid in punishing or seeking vengeance on one s enemies. Other examples better known in the modern era include Abracadabra and Hocus Pocus magic Hocus Pocus . Compare the history of Baphomet .

    There are no records of names used by the Romano British for their roads, if they used names at all. The few surviving Roman maps and documents, such as the Antonine Itinerary only distinguish roads by the towns which they served. Many Ancient Rome Roman roads in England were renamed by the Anglo Saxons , although many more fell out of use and largely disappeared, now seen only in lines of trees, crop marks or parish boundaries. These lost roads are now identified by numbers, some with added letters, given to them by I D Margary. ref Margary Ivan D. 1973 Roman Roads in Britain 3rd Edition John Baker, London ISBN 0 212 97001 1 ref Roads ending in gate Roman roads used by the Saxons and hence renamed, in Old English , with the suffix geat or gate for example, Batham Gate , Stanegate .
