Sacrosanct
Sacrosanct means beyond alteration, criticism, or interference, especially due to religious sanction, and inviolable. The term is derived from the phrase sacer esto ("let him be accursed") and reflects that violation of a tribune's sacrosanctity was not only a secular offense, but a religious offense as well.
