Origin:
The term "claviger" has its roots in ancient Roman mythology, where it was used to describe the god Hercules (known as Heracles in Greek mythology). Hercules was renowned for his strength and prowess in battle, and he was often depicted carrying a large club as his primary weapon.
Later, the term "claviger" was also used to refer to other gods and mythological figures who were associated with clubs or scepters. For example, in Norse mythology, the god Thor was known as the "club-bearer" due to his iconic hammer, Mjölnir.
In Christian tradition, the term "claviger" has been used as a title for certain saints who were martyred by being beaten to death with clubs or other blunt objects. The most notable example is Saint Boniface, the patron saint of Germany, who was known as "the Clubbearer" (German: der Keulenträger).
