Carbuncle (English Carbuncle, Latin carbunculus, Spanish carbunclo) is the gem of luminous fantasy of the decisive canon — derived from Latin 'carbunculus (small coal)' — the decisive canonical vocabulary — the decisive canon of red gems (ruby, garnet, spinel) — and the decisive canon of the mythical beast bearing a gem on its forehead in medieval fantasy literature. Aliases — Carbuncle (Carbuncle), carbunculus (carbunculus, Latin), carbunclo (carbunclo, Spanish), beast of the forehead gem, red stone, fire garnet — are the decisive canonical vocabulary. The decisive natural history origin canon is the decisive canon of 'carbunculus is the stone of the light of fire' in Pliny the Elder's (Pliny the Elder, 23-79) Natural History (Naturalis Historia) Book 37 chapters 92-95 of the 1st century. The decisive Borges canon is the decisive canon of the carbunclo in Jorge Luis Borges's (Jorge Luis Borges) Book of Imaginary Beings (El libro de los seres imaginarios) of 1957.
Origin
The etymological origin is the decisive canonical vocabulary of Latin 'carbunculus (small coal, from carbo 'coal' + ‐unculus 'small')' — the decisive canon of the translation of Greek 'ánthrax (ἄνθραξ ánthrax, coal, stone of fire)' — and the decisive canon as the general term for ruby, garnet, and spinel until the 18th century. The decisive natural history origin canon is the decisive canon of the Roman Pliny the Elder's (Pliny the Elder, 23-79) Natural History (Naturalis Historia) Book 37 chapters 92-95 of the 1st century — 'carbunculus is the stone of the light of fire, with 12 varieties, from India and Garamantes'. The decisive Bible canon is the decisive canon of the carbunculus among the 12 foundation stones of New Jerusalem in Revelation 21:19-20. The decisive mythical beast canon is the decisive canon of the myth of the carbunclo of the South American conquistadors of the 16th century — the decisive canon of the Historia general de las Indias of Gonzalo Fernández de Oviedo (Gonzalo Fernández de Oviedo, 1478-1557). The decisive Borges canon is the decisive canon of the Argentine Jorge Luis Borges's (Jorge Luis Borges, 1899-1986) Book of Imaginary Beings (El libro de los seres imaginarios) of 1957 — 'the carbunclo (carbunclo) is a small animal bearing a luminous gem on its forehead'.

Weakness
Carbuncle's weaknesses are: (1) binding of definition — the decisive canonical weakness — the decisive canon of ambiguity due to being the general term for ruby, garnet, and spinel until the 18th century; (2) binding of mineralogy — the decisive canon of the name 'carbuncle' disappearing due to the development of mineralogy in the 18th century; (3) binding of the mythical beast — the decisive canon of being a fantasy, not a real animal; (4) binding of the conquistadors — the decisive canon of the South American conquistadors of the 16th century not finding it; (5) binding of Borges — the decisive canon of the canon of mythical beasts of 1957; (6) binding of the sacred domain — the decisive canon; (7) binding of light — the decisive canon of the illusion of the light of the forehead; (8) binding of time — the decisive canon of the binding of 2000 years of Latin. The decisive canonical finale is the decisive mythological canon of Borges's Book of Imaginary Beings of 1957.
