Heraldry and Awards

Heraldry in the SCA follows many of the medieval rules, and is governed by the Society-wide College of Heralds. There are many resources available to provide heraldic assistance, a number of which are cited in the box to the right. You are strongly urged to talk with a well-versed book herald prior to making any arms submission.

A number of awards carry with them the injunction to register a device with the College of Heralds. The Order of Precedence lists the populace based on the various awards given out in recognition of that individual's contribution to the Barony or Kingdom.
