according to one source it was a phrase indicating ( useful In warfare) which could apply to a lot of things including a Jeep. Kidding aside there was a Medieval empress or Queen Editha who married a German monarch. She has an elaborate sepulchural monument which suggests that she was interred in a seated posture holding the gospel ( or a similar religious tome) in one hand. I can recall seeing a photo of this tomb statue- quite different from flat-out effigies like that of Elizabeth I, in a Medieval history book when I was in High school.
