A person who practices chiromancy; someone who claims to predict the future or reveal information about a person by reading the lines and features of their hands.
From Greek 'cheir' (hand) + '-mantis' (diviner). This occupational term emerged during the Middle Ages when hand-reading became a popular fortune-telling practice.
Medieval chiromancers were so respected that they advised kings and queens about their fates—some became wealthy and famous while others were condemned as frauds or witches.
