Talk:Throne

In Medieval times the throne of Solomon was associated with Mary. The ivory of the throne represented purity, the gold represented divinity and the six steps of the throne stood for the six virtues. There's that "passive of attribution" again. A quote would lend weight and color to such a statement. Without it, this sounds like the "Language of the Flowers." Wetman 03:02, 16 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Altar-and-throne

The article mentions ecclesiastical thrones, but it should also mention the expression altar-and-throne, which is the name given to the pre-Revolutionary regimes in Catholic Europe, which were characterized by a close collaboration between the royalty and the papacy, such as in the Holy Roman Empire.

A Throne is a seat of state,the seat is occupied by a king or queen with color and several gems and stones — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.72.184.169 (talk) 22:05, 9 January 2018 (UTC)

Empty "Islam" section

The section heading "Throne" "Islam" has been completely empty, except for a link to Al-Baqara 255, since this edit in 2011, more than six years ago. There's no reason for the empty section to have persisted for this long. If there is no objection, I am going to delete this empty section and will move the link to the "See also" heading. 青い(Aoi) (talk) 01:01, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

Good idea. Johnbod (talk) 09:53, 1 February 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for the quick response. Done. 青い(Aoi) (talk) 02:41, 2 February 2018 (UTC)

Can see nothing under "Islam" - ? Pls see next topic. Arminden (talk) 09:01, 8 November 2024 (UTC)

Arab "kursi"

Removed till worked out:

"In the ' regency' (nominally an Ottoman province, de facto an independent realm) of the bey of Tunis, the throne was called kursi."

Unsourced. No context, sub-standard, useless as it is now - but part of important, missing wider topic.

Arabic "kursi" covers also "throne villages" = seats of power of clan chiefs in Palestine (at least), and probably much more. This isolated Tunisian factlet is totally lost and wasted here. Arminden (talk) 09:05, 8 November 2024 (UTC)
