installed King Charles IIIKing of the United Kingdom, following the death of his mother, Elizabeth II, but the royal coronation will take place a few months from now, through an ancient ritual, dating back nearly 1,000 years, when the king had put on his head an invaluable centuries-old relic It is the crown of Saint Edward.
The former Prince of Wales was officially declared the new King of the United Kingdom and the rest of the British Commonwealth on Saturday 10 September at St James’s Palace in London.
While this event is important, it should not be confused with the coronation. This traditional anointing will take place at an unspecified date, likely within several months, according to the ancient-origins website.
During this initiation rite, King Charles III will be presented with royal regalia, which includes elaborate clothing and other decorations that the king would wear at official presentations and events. The climax of the coronation will come when the Archbishop of Canterbury, the chief clergyman of the Church of England, places the Crown on the head of the new king, putting the final touches on the transition of power from one king to another.
