| Jan 2, 2017 at 3:34 | comment | added | yannis | I was referring to the group that first used the term in their name @Geremia. Yes, others have also used the term, variously. Also, it comes from Latin, not Italian. | |

It refers more to the higher degrees of Freemasonry than it does to Freemasons from a certain region. See Grand Orient Freemasonry Unmasked. | |

Tried to rephrase the question to pass muster
