Article 111 - Coronatum (Coronation)

Canon 6291 (link)

The ritual of Coronatum, also known as “Coronation”, being the formal investiture of a sovereign through a series of formal rituals including the placement of a crown upon their head, was first invented and introduced as a key Sacrament of Sacré Loi (Sacred Law) by the Carolingians in the 8th Century CE.

Canon 6292 (link)

The word coronatum is Latin for “placement (on the head) of a crown or garland; encirclement (circumscription) as a ritual of sanctification”.

Canon 6293 (link)

The significant differences with the Carolingian ceremony of Coronation to any previous formal ritual or ceremony of investiture of a ruler or leader are:

(i) The candidate must first be declared of suitable character and exemplification of the true seven (7) sacraments of the Catholic Church as “notorious” candidates were automatically ineligible; and

(ii) The candidate must secondly have been elected either by unanimous acclamation or ballot from “elector” nobles; and

(iii) The candidate must thirdly profess a sacred oath before the electors, the church and members of the public, to serve as a true Christian sovereign; and

(iv) A legitimate vicar, primate or bishop holding apostolic authority then anoints the candidate as having the authority of heaven as well as earth, followed by a call for any contrary view; and

(v) The candidate was then crowned as sovereign; and

(vi) The candidate was then handed two symbols of authority, as the most senior tenant of the church in the form of the  globus cruciger or “royal orb” and secondly as the highest secular judge in the form of sceptrum iustitia or “sceptre of justice” or “main de justice” tipped with the fleur de lys as the imperial symbol of the sangreal, or “Holly bloodlines” of France since the times of the first Merovingian kings; and

(vii) From the 13th Century, a third symbol being a rod, often adorned with the symbol of the “dove” symbolizing fealty to the Roman Death Cult and absolutely authority was added during the coronation ceremony of Edward I of England.

Canon 6294 (link)

The Vicarius Christi, or Vicar of Christ was also required to undergo a formal Coronation ceremony to legitimize their position and temporal authority, with the first coronation occurring of Carloman as Zacharias in 751 CE in Avignon in the south of France.

Canon 6295 (link)

The last Coronation of a candidate claiming to be Vicarius Christi and therefore head of the Romanum Catholicus Ecclesia (Catholic Church) was Giovanni Battista Montini also known as Paul VI in 1963.

Canon 6296 (link)

No candidate claiming to be Vicarius Christi or head of the Romanum Catholicus Ecclesia (Catholic Church) can justify such a claim if they have not undergone the requisite coronation to the position which has existed since the creation of the Catholicus Ecclesia (Catholic Church) in the 8th Century.
