However, an alternative translation is simply ‘sanctuary’ or ‘holiest of holies’. In this case, the word might refer to the choir of the church, as is how [[Ailnothus]] employs this term in chapter 28 of Gesta Swenomagni where Knud’s martyrdom takes place ‘ad orientem sanctuarii’, in the eastern part of the sanctuary (GERTZ 1912, 120). Since the last line of the poem is formulated as ‘Cuius corpus tumulo illic condebatur’, ‘whose body was buried there in the grave’, it seems that Arnfast attributes Knud’s protection of the Church of St Alban to the fact that this was where he was first buried after his martyrdom. Since Knud’s body had rested in a grave in St Alban’s, Knud was also protective of this holy space. Arnfast’s use of the word ‘tumulo’, ‘grave’, might mean that it is not the shrine but the first burial place that is importance for explaining Knud’s patronage of the Church of St Alban. This usage is also suggested when comparing with the first antiphon for Laudes in the office for St Knud, the Historia Kanuti. This antiphon concludes with the verses ‘miranda sunt post obitum / ad eius gesta tumulum’ (‘after his death, wonders were performed at his grave’) (HOPE 2017, LXXIII. Curiously, this word is also written out in a marginal comment to this antiphon in a copy of Breviarium Othoniense, now Kongelige Bibliotek LN 29, f.262). Finally, we must also note that Arnfastus himself uses the word ‘sacraria’ in stanza V when referring to the shrine of St Knud, although this might be due to scansion. Consequently, Gertz’s argument about Knud’s shrine being placed in the Church of St Alban in the mid-thirteenth century is far from certain.     </div></td><td class="diff-marker" data-marker="+"></td><td style="color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div>Gertz’s dating relies mainly on the translation of ‘sanctuario’ or ‘sanctuarium’ as ‘shrine’.

These stories might also have been informed by orally transmitted collective memory.
