Definition: The word "Anomura" in Old English referred to a person who was not a proper member of society or had been expelled from it due to their immoral behavior. It was also used to describe an outsider, particularly someone without ties to a community or family. The term originally appeared only in the Bible, as it is believed to be a metaphor for those outside the Christian church who did not have a place in the religious establishment but still adhered to certain moral codes and teachings.
