Arms & Armory Glossary of Terms

The glossary is meant as a growing resource for students, re-enactors, and anyone interested in knighthood, chivalry, or the medieval tournament. The current page is but a brief listing of what we would like to have on the page; if you would be interested in helping with a given area, such as in heraldry, transcribing tournament accounts, translations, or research, drop the author an email at admin@eduref.net. Additionally, we would like to expand many of the definitions here; if you want to try one or more of them send your submissions to the email address above–we can use the help!
