Damnatio memoriae: Purging People from Public Memory

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


In the United Kingdom, Remembrance Sunday is observed annually on the second Sunday of November. This solemn occasion is meant to commemorate the contribution of British and Commonwealth military and civilian servicemembers in the two World Wars and later conflicts. As the phrase commonly associated with this day, ‘lest we forget’ indicates, there is a conscious desire to prevent forgetting the fallen. Yet, the living do not always intend to remember the dead, and at times even made an effort to erase them from people’s memories. The most recognized example of this is damnatio memoriae.

The ancient Romans (the Roman Senate to be more precise) could pass a form of dishonor known as the damnatio memoriae (literally meaning ‘damnation of memory’). In theory, this punishment was meant to be inflicted upon traitors or those who brought discredit to Rome. In practice, however, it could be imposed on anyone that was not in the Senate’s or the Roman Emperor’s good books. One of the most well-known cases may be that of Emperor Geta, who was murdered by his brother Caracalla, and subsequently had the damnatio memoriae inflicted upon him.

      Who has been hidden by Aristolean Greek Tyrant Kings, then the Vaticans Society of Jesus?

      ATTIS and CYBELE. The real religion of Eastern “Rome” (Constantinople). Attis a Eunech that CASTRATED himself under a Pine tree.

      THEMIS. A Phonecian Goddess of Justice, twisted into evil Persian Admiral ‘false-flag’ piratess…Artemis. Now Diana .

      1812 SPENCER PERCIVAL. The last UK PM that was PROTESTant, and aware of the dangers of the Jesuits. He was Assassinated in the House of Commons………by a midshipmen spy, in the Brit East India Co……the merchant Navy that was used against the Royal Navy.

      REV. ANG. WILLIAM HECHLER…….a Bishop in Nigeria(see colonial flag~Star of David) ,and wanted to be Bishop of Jerusalem.

      *this man taught “Zionist Herzl” (had maps and scale temple models!!), and introduced him to the kaiser, and EU Aristocracy.

      Attis is the big one though. They invented ‘ihesous,iesus,jesus’ to Replace/Hide….the real origins of Christianity. Attis worship.

      @HILARIA (easter today)…….#DIES SANGUINIS (Day of Blood/Lady Day)……@PIGNA….Attis pine flanked by GALLUS.
      @GALLI

      sadly, @CASTRATO is the sick evidence the Vatican is also hiding…..a literal Matthew 19;12…..making EUNECHs 4 heaven.
