Sacra Rota Romana

Two posts ago talking about the "Rota Porphiretica" an "anonimo"reader gave me the idea for this post. I have to admit, i never known, until today, the reason why the Tribunal of the Holy See is called "Sacra Rota". Is a really serious fault for someone who lives in Rome from the birth! Today i have filled up this gap thanks to a blogger friend! :-)
The Tribunal of the Rota Romana was essentially named as such because the judges, called auditors, originally met in a round room to hear cases (look at the picture).
Thank you very much to all those who want to suggest me ideas to talking about!
WELCOME!
