Ah okay. :) That would still have confused me a bit as the SCA heraldry "powers that be" are also called College of Arms. Though it is King Laurel at Arms that is the head of the CoA. I believe that he knows of them but to what extent I am not sure. I pick up bits and pieces about heraldry from those who study it. My main interest in heraldry when I find the time is heraldic display, which I haven't found time of late as I have been quite busy. Thank you for the url. De
-----Original Message----- For anyone who doesn't know, the College of Arms (my mistake above - not the College of Heralds - wrote that in the middle of the night!) was initiated by Richard lll, I believe in 1485. These are the people who supervise the granting of arms by her Majesty the Queen, and draw up mottoes, coats of arms etc. http://www.college-of-arms.gov.uk/ Suzi _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
