”In many historical societies, the position of kingship carries a sacral meaning; that is, it is identical with that of a high priest and judge.”

”English coronations were traditionally held at Westminster Abbey, with the monarch seated on the Coronation Chair. Main elements of the coronation service and the earliest form of oath can be traced to the ceremony devised by Saint Dunstan for King Edgar’s coronation in 973 AD at Bath Abbey.”
