AUGUR
6
Definition
Pronunciation: //ˈɔː.ɡə//
noun
- (Ancient Rome) An official who interpreted omens before the start of public events."It was an ancient tradition, that when the Capitol was founded by one of the Roman kings, the god Terminus (who presided over boundaries, and was represented, according to the fashion of that age, by a large stone) alone, among all the inferior deities, refused to yield his place to Jupiter himself. A favorable inference was drawn from his obstinacy, which was interpreted by the augurs as a sure presage that the boundaries of the Roman power would never recede."
