* From the Latin manipulus which means “handful, small sheaf”. The maniple is a strip of fabric of the same material and color as the chasuble, worn on the left arm by the priest, the deacon and the subdeacon, from the 9th century until it was made optional by the instruction Tres abhinc annos in 1967 and then no longer mentioned in the missal of 1969. Its use is again normative in the context of the celebration of the Tridentine form of the Roman rite. Worn first by the deacons of the Roman Church, its use extended to bishops, priests, subdeacons and even lower clerics. In the 11th century it was attributed only to major orders and became, as such, the particular badge of the subdiaconate. It is only worn for mass, with the chasuble, dalmatic or tunic. Its decoration is identical to that of the stole.
