Etymology

"Memento" refers to an object kept as a reminder of a person, place, or event. It originates from the Latin mementō, meaning "remember". The name may be a reference to the members being fossilized counterparts of classic monsters from the early OCG.

The name may also allude to the Latin phrase mementō morī ("Remember you must die"), in reference to the skeletal appearances of the monsters.

All "Memento" monsters barring "Tectolica" carry effects that destroy "Memento" monsters you control to add consistency and set up the GY for explosive plays.
