The Science of Heraldry
Heraldry, a system of using a variety of shapes and symbols on a
shield or coat of arms to identify an individual or family, is almost
900 years old. The use of symbols on shields can be seen in the Bayeux
Tapestry, a tapestry which we studied earlier this year and which is
thought to have been made in the 1070's. It became a herald's job to
create and keep records of the symbols and coats of arms. Go to the web
site for the International Heraldry & Heralds to learn more and
