Okay, all you registrars out there! I've tried the Art and Architecture
Thesaurus, and I've tried Nomenclature, and neither has a word to say on the
subject that I can find, so I'm trying you!
The question is, how would one classify an object intended to be a divination
aid, such as a pack of Tarot cards? (*Somebody* must have one in their
collection . . . ) Is it (a) a communication device; (b) a ceremonial
object; (c) a personal object of some sort; or something else?
What do *you* think?
