[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]

"It is the eater of men. From rocks and dust you will know them... Like an empty cup they will fill you... Sanguijuela> choking the throat rocks and arrows they will turn aside for the cattle know not fear and seek flesh to hollow... And turn out their neighbors the iluminacion>> spreads from the darkest corners... To swallow us whole" -Spanish text fragment found in a basement at a dig near Cordoba, dated to 1511

>The modern Spanish equivalency of the actual word used. There is some question as to the intent of the author- Sanguijuela, "Leech", is only an approximation. The usage would seem to suggest a parasitical entity of some sort, such as a tick, mite, or possibly an internal parasite such as Schistosoma.

>>The apparently colloquial word used is open to interpretation. "Iluminacion" would seem to be the closest related term to "Illuminados". It has been suggested that the most literal translation to modern English would be "Illuminati".
