Rusty Neon and Terri, there is already an entire thread which explores the meaning of the word mat in exhaustive detail.

card titles - Le Mat

I'd rather this thread concentrate on the myth of the Bel-gargan, and his relation to the "Fool" card.

Thank you! I read them... Mat without the "aux echecs" or the "check" part to me does not denote "checkmate"...the dictionaries do use the extensions for "checkmate"

Sorry about translating the last part of the article, firemaiden, but there was a summary about Le Mat acting as the "unblocker" as related to the myth of the Belgargan...
