"The Other Coronation Stone" is not in England any more but has been returned to Scotland In all the panoply surrounding the occasion of a royal coronation, the actual act of crowning a new British monarch takes place on the coronation throne in Westminster Abbey in London. Until recently, the coronation throne enclosed a stone, sacred to the Scots and on which all Scottish kings had been crowned. In an act of subjugation the stone was taken by the English King Edward I (Longshanks) from the Palace of Scone and housed in Westminster Abbey. Known as the Stone of Destiny, it was placed in the coronation throne and thereafter all English kings and queens were crowned while seated upon it. Eventually a wiser council prevailed and the stone was returned to its rightful owners in the latter part of the 20th Century. The English, however, had a perfectly good coronation stone of their own, existing from an earlier age, and on which kings were crowned in England. This one was perfectly serviceable and is the rightful property of England. http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A31268298 Mar 25 09, 10:56 AM
