  • Stone of Destiny a 'Fake to Dupe Invading English' Abbot of Scone Hid Real Stone from Edward I, Says Salmond
    Printer Friendly http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/scotland/article4144587.ece?pr... From The Times June 15, 2008 Stone of Destiny a 'fake to dupe invading English' Abbot of Scone hid real stone from Edward I, says Salmond David Lister, Scotland Correspondent Do you think the Stone should be sent to England? Vote here For centuries it has held a mystical place in Scottish history, but Alex Salmond sparked fresh debate about the Stone of Destiny yesterday by claiming that the version on display at Edinburgh Castle is a fake. The stone, said to have been used in the coronation of early Scottish monarchs and in Biblical times by Jacob as a pillow, is one of the earliest symbols of Scottish nationhood and has been an emblem of strained relations with England ever since it was stolen by Edward I in 1296. But the First Minister has claimed that the block of red sandstone held until 1996 at Westminster Abbey, and now on permanent display in Edinburgh, was almost certainly not the original coronation stone. He said that monks at Scone Abbey had probably duped the English into believing that they had stolen the stone when in fact they took a replica. “If you're the Abbot of Scone and the strongest and most ruthless king in Christendom is charging toward you in 1296 to steal Scotland's most sacred object and probably put you and half of your cohorts to death, do you do nothing and wait until he arrives or do you hide yourself and the stone somewhere convenient in the Perthshire hillside? I think the second myself,” Mr Salmond said.

  • “We Wanted a Parliament but They Gave Us a Stone” the Coronation Stone of the Scots As a Memory Box in the Twentieth Century
    “We wanted a parliament but they gave us a stone” The Coronation Stone of the Scots as a Memory Box in the Twentieth Century JÖRG ROGGE In this article a memory box is presented, in which and to which different meanings were contained and attached in the course of seven centuries.1 This memory box is the coronation stone of Scottish kings, nowadays on display in Edinburgh Castle, the external form of which has remained for the most part unchanged. The roughly 150 kg heavy, 67 cm long, 42 cm wide and 28 cm high sandstone block was used in the Middle Ages at the inauguration of Scottish kings.2 In the course of history, however, it was removed from its original functional context and transferred to other cultural and political contexts. In this connection, both diachronic and also synchronic transfers of the coronation stone and the concepts of political order in the island of Britain stored in it were carried out. At present it is still an important memory box filled with political concepts, and it was and is a starting point for research into the relationship between the Scots and the English over the past 700 years. It is remarkable that this stone was used by nationally emotional Scots and also by the Government in London as symbol in important debates in the twentieth century. Historical recollections are transported by the Scots and the English with the stone that one may certainly call a container of memory. Here I 1 My thanks go to John Deasy for translating the German text into English as well as to the editors for finishing the final formatting.

  • The Adventure of the Stone of Scone - Ston the Return of Solar Pons, 1958
    The Adventure of the Stone of Scone - Ston The Return of Solar Pons, 1958 Date Copper/December 25, 1930 Pattrick/December, 1935 The Case Parker is awakened at Pons just before 4 AM on Christmas morning. Bancroft is on his way over to Praed Street. Once he arrives, he tells them that the Stone of Scone, the ancient Coronation Stone of the Scottish people has been stolen from Westminster Abbey. It is a symbolic item and the English government wants it back with a minimum of embarrassment. Pons quickly determines that it was taken by three men and a woman and goes to work. Quotes This bids fair to be the merriest of Christmases! Comments Pons tells his brother that Bancroft must have come “on a matter of the utmost gravity.” He adds that it is not connected with the Foreign Office because of the hour. That seems a specious deduction, at best. Foreign Office affairs would certainly be likely to require immediate attention at any moment, twenty-four hours a day. Certainly, this is a police matter: the symbol of Scottish independence has been stolen. But Bancroft makes it clear that it is the government that is most concerned. Wouldn’t the issue be a Foreign Office matter as well? The Stone of Scone’s formal name is the Stone of Destiny, though the former name is used widely outside of Scotland. The kings of Scotland were crowned upon a throne built above the Stone of Destiny, which was “about twenty-six inches long and sixteen wide, and weights considerably over four hundred pounds, almost five.” Edward I conquered Scotland and took the stone back to England.

  • Westminster Abbey ASERVICE to CELEBRATE the 60TH ANNIVERSARY of the CORONATION of HER MAJESTY QUEEN ELIZABETH II
    Westminster Abbey ASERVICE TO CELEBRATE THE 60TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE CORONATION OF HER MAJESTY QUEEN ELIZABETH II Tuesday 4th June 2013 at 11.00 am FOREWORD On 2nd June 1953, the Coronation of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II followed a pattern established over the centuries since William the Conqueror was crowned in Westminster Abbey on Christmas Day 1066. Our intention in this Service of Thanksgiving is to evoke and reflect the shape of the Coronation service itself. The Queen’s entrance was marked by the Choirs’ singing Psalm 122—I was glad—set to music for the Coronation of EdwardVII by Sir Hubert Parry. The Queen’s Scholars of Westminster School exercised their historic right to exclaim Vivat Regina Elizabetha! (‘Long live Queen Elizabeth!’); so it will be today. The coronation service begins with the Recognition. The content of this part of the service is, of course, not today what it was in 1953, but the intention is similar: to recognise with thanksgiving the dutiful service offered over the past sixty years by our gracious and noble Queen, and to continue to pray God saveThe Queen. The Anointing is an act of consecration, a setting apart for royal and priestly service, through the gift of the Holy Spirit. The Ampulla from which the oil was poured rests today on the HighAltar as a reminder of that central act. St Edward’s Crown also rests today on the High Altar as a powerful symbol of the moment of Coronation. In today’s Service, a flask of Oil is carried by representatives of the people of the United Kingdom to the Sacrarium, received by theArchbishop and placed by the Dean on the High Altar.

  • The Stone of Scone
    The Stone of Scone Some time ago, in London on holiday, I went along to Westminster Abbey to see the throne that God’s word promised would exist until Christ returned to claim it. Sadly I never got to see the throne of David, or King Edward’s throne as it is called, as the Abbey was temporarily closed, so I ended up in the Abbey bookshop, but there I came across a book entitled ‘Jacob’s Pillar – A Biblical Historical Study’, by E. Raymond Capt. M.A. A.I.A. F.S.A. Scot. That book started me off on a journey through the Bible that will today provide the evidence for you that our monarch is indeed a descendant of Israel’s King David, that the throne has existed through the ages, and still awaits the return of the One who’s right it is, to claim it. In 2 Samuel 7:16, David’s throne is prophesied by God, through Nathan the prophet, to remain forever on the earth, ‘And your house and your kingdom shall be established forever before you: your throne shall be established forever.’ Much of the history of the stone can be gleaned from the pages of the Bible, (plus secular history) but God has played down its role to avoid idolatry, though the evidence of its travels makes our subject today…… It was about 760BC, and Jacob had been sent by Isaac his father, son of Abraham, to find a wife from amongst his own people. He was on a journey from Beersheba to Padan-Haran, Genesis 28: 10- 22, ‘And Jacob went out from Beersheba, and went toward Haran’ ….

  • Royal Gold: Reflections of Power
    Podcast transcript Royal Gold: Reflections of Power The Queen's Gallery, Buckingham Palace Wednesday, 17 December 2014 Kathryn Jones, Senior Curator of Decorative Art, Royal Collection Trust Hello, and welcome to a podcast from Royal Collection Trust where we’ll be looking at how gold has for centuries been associated with royalty. Traditionally it has been used to create the regalia and other trappings associated with coronations, yet surprisingly few items in the Royal Collection are made from solid gold. Coming up, Kathryn Jones, Curator of Decorative Arts at Royal Collection Trust, gives a lecture entitled, ‘Royal Gold: Reflections of Power’ at the Queen’s Gallery, Buckingham Palace. She will examine a few of these works of art in detail and explore how gold has been used to denote the highest degree of status and authority. This is an enhanced podcast so you’ll be able to see the images being spoken about on the screen of your device. [00:48] Kathryn Jones: Good afternoon everyone. A German visiting Windsor Castle in 1598 recorded that ‘The walls of the Palace shine with gold and silver’ and noted a cabinet where ‘Besides everything glitters so with silver, gold and jewels as to dazzle one’s eyes’. In 1517 Henry VIII held a great banquet at Whitehall for the Ambassadors of France and the Venetian Republic where a great buffet was placed beside the dining table. The display included silver and gold vases worth vast treasure and larger vases of silver gilt. After the banquet the plate was deliberately left on show so that the public could come and view it.

  • The Stone of Scone
    Фадеева Е.Г. The Stone of Scone At first sight, it is difficult to understand why this plain and rather unremarkable block of sandstone has fired the passion that it has over the past 700 years. Yet the power and importance of the Stone (also known as the Stone of Scone) far outstrips its physical appearance. It is arguably the greatest symbol and touchstone of Scottish nationhood and as such, has been a very potent icon for more than a thousand years. Scone is a name with a great deal of resonance in Scottish history. It was an important Pictish centre for centuries. The Stone of Scone, also known as the Stone of Destiny, is seen as of huge significance to Scotland's nationhood. It was the seat on which generations of Kings of Scotland, and Kings of Dalriada before them, were crowned. The stone, weighing 336 pounds (152 kg), is a rectangular block of pale yellow sandstone (almost certainly of Scottish origin) measuring 26 inches (66 cm) by 16 inches (41 cm) by 11 inches (28 cm). A Latin cross is its only decoration. Attached to the stone in ancient times was allegedly a piece of metal with a prophecy that Sir Walter Scott translated as Unless the fates be faulty grown And prophet’s voice be vain Where’er is found this sacred stone The Scottish race shall reign. Legends Every story has a beginning. But this story may have several. And it may have several endings. The “Stone of Destiny”, the stone placed inside the coronation chair upon which British monarchs are crowned, could be as recent as five decades old, seven centuries, or three if not more millennia.

  • COMMENTING on the Recent Reference in This Column to The
    COMMENTING ON THE Recent reference in this column to the proposal that the Dionne quintuplets be housed in Castle Loma in the city of Toronto and there be placed on exhibition as a means of enabling the city to obtain revenue from a property now unproductive, Arthur Brusegaard of Gilby gives some facts concerning the history of that remarkable building. Mr. Brusegaard visited Toronto in 1929 and was shown the "castle" on a sight-seeing tour of the city. He writes: "THE MAN WHO BUILT IT, whose name I have forgotten, had been a major in the Canadian Army and had made quite a reputation for himself and his outfit in France. In the fall of 1921, I think it was, he gathered the group of men who had served under him in France, together in Toronto, outfitted them in new uniforms, drilled them an3 took them over to London, at his own expense. Incidentally, he had accumulated a fortune in the market since the war. The reason for the trip was to take part in the Armistice Day parade held in London. King George, seeing the Canadian service men and hearing of the way in which their trip was financed, was so impressed that he knighted the major. Following the knighting ceremonies the major was feted in various parts of the country and also made a trip into Scotland and had occasion to visit several of the old castles there. It was here that the inspiration came to him to build one in Toronto exactly like one of those he had visited.

They constituted a discrete collection, curated by a dedicated monastic officer titled ‘the keeper of St Edward’s shrine and the relics of St Peter’s church’. Inventories of the chapel, made when the office changed hands, survive from 1467, 1479 and 1520. These documents are analysed here for what they reveal of the contents of the collection, monastic interest in it, and the way the relics and related objects were cared for. As an important aspect of the chapel’s spatial configuration, the problem of where precisely the relics were located, is also investigated.
