The sentence

Its eremitical foundation, under advocacy of the palatine count Herman II of Lotharingia (1061-1085), had been dated June 28, 1062

temporarily removed pending clarification.

-- What is an "eremitical" foundation?

-- And what distinguishes this date from the "dedication" in 1086?

In the fondation history of Affligem, the following milestones should be distinguished:
  • licentia eremitis (mid of June 1062)
  • fundatio laicorum: June 28, 1062.
  • aedificatio: 1083, before August.
  • donatio fundatoris: March 31, 1084.
  • libellis dotis: between July 17-31, 1086.
  • dedicatio: August 24, 1086.
  • pronuntiatio: October 1086.
Briefly, prior to the formal dedication of the abbey of Affligem by Bishop Gerardus II of Cambrai in 1086, there existed already a fraternity of eremites, which has been founded on June 28, 1062. This foundation was favored by the palatine count Herman II of Lotharingia, count of Brabant between about 1061-1085. Kindly revert the entry. Witger 10:27, 11 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for that. Entry duly revised, though not "reverted". [Pedant alert] I don't subscribe to the transitive use of "revert": it is the article that reverts, not its author/amender! [/Pedant alert] -- Picapica 17:36, 11 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The sentence The municipality comprises Affligem itself, together with the villages of Essene, Hekelgem and Teralfeneseems pretty incorrect to me as Affligem is the name of the totality of those three villages but isn't the name of a proper village within the Affligem "agglomeration".

This is actually correct, there is no village by the name of Affligem. There is just an abbey by the name Affligem. When in the 1970s a merger of towns and villages into bigger municipalities took place in Belgium, the name of the abbey was adopted as the name of the merged municipality. However, most towns in Belgium took the name of a proper town (most often the biggest), which is why a lot of people are confused on this matter. I know of only one other Flemish municipality not named after a proper town or village, being Heuvelland.Lord Flashheart 12:44, 20 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
There are some other examples of merged Belgian municipalities with a name not corresponding to a locality proper:

name in English

[edit]

Isn't the name in English Afflighen? Hmm maybe it's archaic. --moyogo 17:53, 21 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
