  • Heraldic Terms
    HERALDIC TERMS The following terms, and their definitions, are used in heraldry. Some terms and practices were used in period real-world heraldry only. Some terms and practices are used in modern real-world heraldry only. Other terms and practices are used in SCA heraldry only. Most are used in both real-world and SCA heraldry. All are presented here as an aid to heraldic research and education. A LA CUISSE, A LA QUISE - at the thigh ABAISED, ABAISSÉ, ABASED - a charge or element depicted lower than its normal position ABATEMENTS - marks of disgrace placed on the shield of an offender of the law. There are extreme few records of such being employed, and then only noted in rolls. (As who would display their device if it had an abatement on it?) ABISME - a minor charge in the center of the shield drawn smaller than usual ABOUTÉ - end to end ABOVE - an ambiguous term which should be avoided in blazon. Generally, two charges one of which is above the other on the field can be blazoned better as "in pale an X and a Y" or "an A and in chief a B". See atop, ensigned. ABYSS - a minor charge in the center of the shield drawn smaller than usual ACCOLLÉ - (1) two shields side-by-side, sometimes united by their bottom tips overlapping or being connected to each other by their sides; (2) an animal with a crown, collar or other item around its neck; (3) keys, weapons or other implements placed saltirewise behind the shield in a heraldic display.

  • THE BATTLE ARMS and CREST by WILLIAM .T AMES BATTLE!
    CHAPTER IV THE BATTLE ARMS AND CREST by WILLIAM .T AMES BATTLE! Present interest in the Battle Arms and Crest dates, at least in the North Car­ olina branch of the family, from about the year 1890. At that time, when :Mr. William S. Battle moved from his old Tarboro residence called The Barracks to Lone Pine in the country some five miles away, his son Octavius found among the family pa­ pers a curious old seal of the sort that in old times was used for making impressions on wax in sealing letters and signing documents. This seal was engraved with a shield and crest but had no name or motto. Neither ~Ir. William S. Battle, nor any­ body else, knew anything whatever about its history or about the significance of its - design. There could be no doubt, however, that it had belonged to Ilis father, .Tames S. Battle, of Cool Spring, who died in 1854 at the age of sixty-eight. The seal is in the form of an ellipsc about three-fourths by one-half of nil inch in size, but being finely cut makes a clear impression. The accompanying draw­ ing is a careful enlargement. It shows a shicld surmounted by a crest.' As usual in heraldry, colors are indicated by dots and hatching. The shield is purple with a gold border scalloped on the inncr edge. In the center is a gold griffin with out­ spread wings, rearing as if about to fly to the beholder's left. The crest consists of a crown witli vertical rays out o.f which rises a man's arm bent at the elbow, hold­ ing .towards the beholder's left a complicated form of cross.

There is no evidence that such a pattern was used in Roman names. However, the pattern of a nomen and one or more cognomina is discussed in Ursula Georges, "A Simple Guide to Imperial Roman Names" (http://heraldry.sca.org/names/roman.html#cognomen).
