A plural noun referring to a group or collection of equals or things of equal value.
From aequus (equal) + -culi (diminutive plural suffix from Latin). This rare form suggests 'little equals' or 'things equally small or valuable.'
This word is so archaic and obscure it barely survives in Latin scholarly texts. But it captures something beautiful: a group of equals respecting each other. It's what democracy aspires to be.
