Heraldry

Modar13: /* Court and Ceremonies */

[[Image:Herald.png|right|Herald's badge]]
'''Heraldry''' is the [[medieval]] [[A&S|art and science]] that deals with the creation, use, and recognition of visual displays that identify an individual person, [[guild]], [[town]], [[officer|office]] or other entity. This was typically done through much of the [[Middle Ages]] using a [[paint]]ed [[shield]] which bore a (largely) unique arrangement of [[Line_divisions|division lines]], and objects known as "[[charges]]". Early in the Medieval [[period]], this "[[coat of arms]]" was unique to an individual, only becoming associated with a family in the late [[Renaissance]].

In modern and period worlds, heraldry tends to be governed by the [[laws|rules]] set by the [[herald]]s of the [[College of Arms]].

== Heraldry in the SCA ==
In the [[SCA]], heraldry is concerned with [[ceremony|ceremonies]] and [[Court]]s, the crying of announcements and proclaimations, the pomp and circumstance of the [[Tournament]], and the authentication and registration of [[member]]s' [[persona]] [[names]] and [[arms]] or [[badge]]s. These areas of interest give rise to the terms "[[court heraldry]]" and "field (or list) heraldry" (both also known as "[[voice heraldry]]") and "[[book heraldry]]" (which also includes the background work and research in arranging ceremonies).
The SCA [[symbol]] for a [[herald]] is ''"[[Vert]], two [[cornet]]s in [[saltire]] [[Or]]"''.

The SCA has its own [[College of Arms]].

Attributed arms

2008-03-24T18:28:15Z

Modar13:

Once [[heraldry]] became established, there was a natural desire to give it the firmest foundations possible. This was most easily achieved by back-dating the practice into antiquity. In addition, there was a natural desire to elevate forebears and the famous, and so [[herald]]s began to '''attribute arms''' to earlier worthies.

[[King Arthur]] and his [[knight]]s were an obvious subject, particularly once they became established as paragons and role-models for the [[chivalry]]; in a similar vein the earlier [[king]]s of [[England]] came in for retrospective [[arms]]-bearing, as did the [[noble]] [[family|families]] of [[Wales]].

Beyond this arms were also ascribed for the worthies of history ([[Alexander the Great|Alexander]], [[Julius Caesar|Caesar]], [[Charlemagne]]), and then for the worthies of [[Scripture]], including Joseph of Arimathea, [[Jesus]] and his mother [[Virgin Mary|Mary]], and even (for complicated reasons) Satan himself.

Heraldry

Modar13: /* SCA Heraldry */

[[Image:Herald.png|right|Herald's badge]]
'''Heraldry''' is the [[medieval]] [[A&S|art and science]] that deals with the creation, use, and recognition of visual displays that identify an individual person, [[guild]], [[town]], [[officer|office]] or other entity. This was typically done through much of the [[Middle Ages]] using a [[paint]]ed [[shield]] which bore a (largely) unique arrangement of [[Line_divisions|division lines]], and objects known as "[[charges]]". Early in the Medieval [[period]], this "[[coat of arms]]" was unique to an individual, only becoming associated with a family in the late [[Renaissance]].

In modern and period worlds, heraldry tends to be governed by the [[laws|rules]] set by the [[herald]]s of the [[College of Arms]].

== Heraldry in the SCA ==
In the [[SCA]], heraldry is concerned with [[ceremony|ceremonies]] and [[Court]]s, the crying of announcements and proclaimations, the pomp and circumstance of the [[Tournament]], and the authentication and registration of [[member]]s' [[persona]] [[names]] and [[arms]] or [[badge]]s. These areas of interest give rise to the terms "[[court heraldry]]" and "field (or list) heraldry" (both also known as "[[voice heraldry]]") and "[[book heraldry]]" (which also includes the background work and research in arranging ceremonies).
The SCA [[symbol]] for a [[herald]] is ''"[[Vert]], two [[cornet]]s in [[saltire]] [[Or]]"''.

The SCA has its own [[College of Arms]].
