Term: CoronatorDefinition: A coronator is another word for a coroner. The word comes from the Latin word "corona" which means "crown". In the Middle Ages, the formal title for a coroner was "custos placitorum corone" or "conservator placitorum corone". However, the shorter forms "coronarius" and "coronator" became more popular.

Example: When someone dies unexpectedly, a coronator is called to investigate the cause of death. They examine the body and gather evidence to determine if the death was natural or if foul play was involved. The coronator's job is important because it helps bring closure to the family and ensures that justice is served if a crime was committed.
