Mystagogues of the Old Mathic Age

First Appearance and Context

A headword entry in The Dictionary explaining “bulshytt” lists groups that the Knights of Saunt Halikaarn denounced; among them are the Mystagogues of the Old Mathic Age. The reference places the label within mathic discourse and highlights that later readers chiefly encounter it through retrospective summaries.

Roles/Actions and Affiliations

The phrasing identifies a collective remembered from the Mathic World of the Old Mathic Age. Related reference material on the term Mystagogue records that, in later usage, “Mystagogue” denoted a restrictive suvin that discouraged open theoric work and at one time dominated the maths; the Old Mathic Age label situates this group within that historical frame.
