Excecation

/ˌɛksɪˈkeɪʃən/ noun

Definition

The act of putting out the eyes; blinding, especially as a deliberate punishment or injury.

Etymology

From 'excecate' + '-ion' (the act of). This noun appears in historical and medical records documenting medieval punishments and battlefield injuries.

Kelly Says

Reading about 'excecation' in medieval histories reminds us that punishments were once horrifyingly specific and documented—it's a dark word that shows how language preserves the violence of history.
