  • 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 Brooke Tomb Cobham Kent D'elboux
    http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society (By courier,/ of " Cowgirl, We." THE BROOKE TOMB, COBHAM, (From the H.E.) THE BROOKE TOMB, COBHAM superintendence has been given by Charles Spence Esq, of the Admiralty, Chatham (who indeed has spared neither time, trouble nor workman- ship in the operations) and by Mr. John Gough Nichols." In 1866, Charles Roach Smith, F.S.A., of Temple Farm, Strood, writes to the same periodical to tell how J. G. Waller had recently restored all Cobham monuments, and giving details. In 1840, apparently, the tomb "had all its fragments carefully put together and the general architectural features, which had been lost by the destruction of the columns, were restored in plaster of Paris." The final restoration was begun by a Mr. Richardson (I of metallic heelball fame) and completed by Waller. "No part of the old work has been tampered with; even the smallest fragment of heraldic colour has been preserved . and every part of new work added is given from fragments carefully preserved in the repairs of 1840." It will be observed that there is no other indication of Ha,sted's suggested canopy of marble. As reconstructed, the monument has no space for columns to support a canopy, and it would seem Hasted was misled by the broken and detached Ionic columns which belonged to the sides. In no account is there reference to the iron grille which now surrounds the tomb. The tomb is described by Waller in Archreologia Cantiana, Vol.

All Rights Reserved www.houseofnames.com 888-468-7686 Ancient History The history of the name Roetman brings us to Thuringia, a modern state located between Hessen and Lower Saxony in the west and Saxony in the east. Originally a Kingdom of the Germanic tribe of the Hermunderen, the land was conquered by the Franks and the Saxons in 531. A.D. In 634, King Dagobert appointed Radulf duke of the Thuringians, and the land became virtually independent under his rule. However, Charles Martel abolished the position of duke and brought Thuringia under the rule of Franconian counts, and divided up the territory. The Holy Roman Emperor Charlemagne founded the Thuringian Mark (border region) in 804 as a defensive bulwark against the power of the Slavic peoples. In the Middle Ages the name Roetman has been traced back to Thuringia, where the family was known for its contributions to the prosperity and culture of the emerging feudal society. The family branched into numerous houses, many of which acquired estates and manors throughout the surrounding regions. Spelling Variations Throughout the development and evolution of a name's history, variations in spelling and pronunciation frequently occur.

One key to prevention, according to some, is to keep things simple or as natural as possible. But in nature or the wild, disease of the newborn often causes rates of loss that would be unprofitable for livestock producers. And while it might be wise to keep things natural or simple, the fact is, the situation has been made unnatural by putting up fences, crowding the animals, fixing the calving season, and giving the cattle no choice as to feed. A word of caution is in order. Subpar husbandry of the cattle usually cannot be overcome by anything that comes through a needle, News and a tube, or a balling gun! The damage can be minimized in some cases, but a full investigation should point to needed changes that lead to total prevention. Upcoming Events: Three factors are extremely important in determining whether a calf remains healthy, Thanks to all that survives a disease, or dies. Managers must recognize all these factors: attended Calving 1. The amount of immunity the calf receives from the dam via colostrum.

  • 128 AÜTO-HERALD a Program for the Construction of Heraldic
    - 128 AÜTO-HERALD A Program for the Construction of Heraldic Drawings By C.B.Bayliss M.Sc University of Birmingham Centre for Computing and Computer Science Abstract In this paper I shall describe the main features of a program which constructs heraldic drawings. A description of a coat of arms is entered by a user in conventional heraldic terminology. The coat of arms is then constructed from a library of stored objects and fields and drawn on a terminal. Facilities exist for updating the library, and a picture editor is provided to allow a user to define new objects and fields. Contents Introduction Describing a coat of arms Method of coat of arms construction . Picture editor Library Device dependence and program structure. Conclusion Illustrations Fig I - Diagrams showing method of coat of arms constr- uction Fig 2 - Overall structure of the program - 129 Introduction In heraldry there are many different coats of arms which use a variety of objects in different combinations and colours. A coat of arms consists of a field ( the background ), which can be a colour, metal, fur or pattern which may have one or more objects placed upon it. Such objects are refered to as "charges" in heraldic terminology. A field may be divided, for example by quartering it or halving it. Each part of the field may be a different colour or pattern. Coats of arms are normally displayed on a shield. Colouring used on a coat of arras is called a tincture. There are five commonly used colours:- vert (green) azure (blue), gules (red), sable (black) and purpure (purple).

  • Kingdom of Artemisia Scribes Handbook
    KINGDOM OF ARTEMISIA SCRIBES HANDBOOK JUNE 17, 2000 INTRODUCTION by Viscountess Caryn von Katzenberg, OL, Premier Laurel of Artemisia This handbook has been prepared for the use of the scribes and illuminators of the Kingdom of Artemisia. In this handbook is contained information regarding how to commission a scroll or obtain a scroll assignment; what features a scroll should contain, and appropriate and useful materials and reference sources to use. Also included is information on heraldic conventions and as many Kingdom, Principality and Baronial scroll texts as could be assembled. Great thanks and recognition are due to Lady Osondrea du Bete for her extensive work in compiling the first and second drafts of this document. Thanks also to Master Caolaidhe Mac Ceird and Mistress Casamira Jawjalny for their help in reviewing and preparation of the final drafts. The makers of scrolls are perhaps the most generous artists in the SCA. They spend countless hours of painstaking work on projects which are then given away and often never seen again by anyone but the recipient. They do this for love of their art, sometimes because they seek recognition and awards themselves, but most often because they enjoy seeing how receiving the piece of art adds so much to the joy of the recipient on a very special occasion. They are greatly to be commended. They add a very great deal to the atmosphere and splendor of the courts and homes of the Current Middle Ages. Whatever recognition they receive is richly deserved. There is always work for scribes to do. Good ways to get started are: helping with the preparation of blank scrolls to be filled in and given out at court; preparing Award of Arms promissories; working on back scrolls for Awards of Arms and local awards.

  • Skip to Content CLARE BAYLEY Posted on June 27, 2013 33
    Skip to Content SFW CLARE BAYLEY Posted on June 27, 2013 33 comments A field guide to Pride flags It’s almost time for SF Pride, and that means the city is sprouting rainbow flags like flowers in the desert after a rainstorm. By now most people know what the rainbow signifies, but what about those other striped flags you see waving at Pride events? I thought I knew most of their meanings, but I recently came across the most Pride items I’ve ever seen in one place, and they had keychains with flags that I’d never seen before (and my office is a castle that flies Pride flags from the turrets). Here’s a quick overview of all the ones I could find online, plus a more detailed history and analysis for each further down. My sources are cited in-line or listed at the end. The top 3 are the ones most commonly seen at Pride events. Edited on 6/27/15: Updated/added some flags based on reader feedback. Rearranged flag order to loosely group by category. The Gay Pride Rainbow Ah, the rainbow flag. Such a beautiful and bold statement, hard to ignore or mistake for anything else. (also easy to adapt to every kind of merchandise you can imagine) Wikipedia has an extensive article on it, but here are the more interesting bits: The original Gay Pride Flag was first flown in the 1978 San Francisco Pride Parade, and unlike its modern day 6- color version it was a full rainbow – it included hot pink, turquoise, and indigo instead of dark blue.
