iconoclastic
adj.

Iconoclasm
Iconoclasm is the deliberate destruction within a culture of the culture's own
religious icons and other symbols or monuments, usually for
religious or political motives. It is a frequent component of major domestic political or religious changes. It is thus generally distinguished from the destruction by one culture of the images of another, for example by the Spanish in their American conquests. The term does not generally encompass the specific destruction of images of a ruler after his death or overthrow (
damnatio memoriae), for example
Akhenaten in
Ancient Egypt.
