  Torc - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A torc, also spelled torq or torque (in Latin torques, from torqueo, to twist, because of the twisted shape of the collar), is a rigid circular necklace that is open-ended at the front.
Torcs were worn by various peoples from the Bronze Age, about 1000 BC, until about 300 AD, including the Galatians (or Anatolian Celts), various Germanic tribes the Scythians and the Persians.
One of the earliest known depictions of a torc can be found on the Warrior of Hirschlanden, a statue of a nude ithyphallic warrior made of sandstone, the oldest known iron age life-size anthropomorphic statue north of the Alps.

 TORC : The Ontario Rural Council - Working Groups   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
TORC Working Groups are made up of like-minded people who meet on a consistent basis to focus on specific areas of rural interest and develop research and/or event strategies to provide all of us with a better rural perspective.
One of the major strategies to come out of that session was the need for TORC to become an effective contributor to rural ‘capacity building’ at both the community and organizational levels.
Given that TORC remains committed to sustainable rural communities and has amongst its members an extensive provincial network of rural organizations, it was decided that a TORC Capacity Building Working Group would evolve from the existing membership of the now-defunct Voluntary Sector Working Group.
