The first time I reached caedes.net, I realized that caedes was a Latin word but never bothered to look it up. Today I did so and was quite surprised.

caedes, caedis: a cutting down, killing, slaughter; a slain person; blood shed in slaughter

For such a beautiful community, the name caedes seems like quite an odd choice. Is there any reason as to why it was chosen?

Thanks,
