Meanings
- not comparableRevocatory; tending to revoke or recall.
There is often uncertainty about the date on which the revocative edict was promulgated. Some documents mention October 15, 1685 others October 18 and still others October 22, 1685. The revocative edict itself gives no date but refers only to October 1685.
