A quick definition of silentiary:

Term: SILENTIARY

Definition: A silentiary is a person who has different roles in different contexts. In Roman law, a silentiary is an official who maintains order in the imperial palace and on the imperial council. They are also known as a chamberlain. In history, a silentiary is an officer who is sworn to silence about state secrets, especially a privy councillor so sworn. Additionally, a silentiary can be a court usher who maintains order and silence in the court. Another term for a silentiary is silentiarius.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A silentiary (sI-len-shee-air-ee) is an official who has the responsibility of maintaining order and silence in various settings.

There are three different types of silentiaries:

  1. Roman law silentiary: This official maintains order in the imperial palace and on the imperial council. They are also known as a chamberlain.
  2. State secrets silentiary: This officer is sworn to silence about state secrets. They are usually a privy councillor.

A state secrets silentiary would be responsible for keeping confidential information safe and not sharing it with anyone. A court silentiary would make sure that everyone in the court is quiet and respectful during proceedings.
