Slovníček A - abacot




abacot [åb'ãkôt], dvojitá koruna (též čapka, jakou nosívali angličtí králové).


Up to the end of the 19th century, abacot was defined in many dictionaries as “the cap of state formerly used by English kings, wrought into the figure of two crowns.” Some dictionaries even figure of two crowns.” Some dictionaries even contained an illustration of an abacot taken from the great seal of the 15th century king Henry VII.
