    Etymology

    () Traditional; the sentiment dates back to Roman times: :quid enim sanctius, quid omni religione munitius, quam domus unusquisque civium? :What more sacred, what more strongly guarded by every holy feeling, than a man's own home? :—Cicero In English, see of William Blackstone's Commentaries on the Laws of England: :And the law of England has so particular and tender a regard to the immunity of a man's house, that it stiles it his castle, and will never suffer it to be violated with immunity: agreeing herein with the sentiments of ancient Rome, as expressed in the works of Tully; quid enim sanctius, quid omni religione munitius, quam domus unusquisque civium?
