pallium a woollen vestment conferred by the Pope on an archbishop, consisting of a narrow circular band placed round the shoulders with a short lappet hanging from front and back.
From the mid 16th century, the term has also been used to denote a man's large rectangular cloak, especially as worn by Greek philosophical and religious teachers.
Recorded from Old English, the word is Latin, and means literally ‘covering’.
