heraldry
Significado: The system of designing, displaying, and studying coats of arms and other armorial bearings, traditionally used to identify individuals, families, and institutions.
Heraldry originated in medieval Europe as a practical means of identifying armoured knights in battle and tournaments. In Britain, the College of Arms (founded 1484) still grants and regulates coats of arms. Heraldic symbols appear on everything from university crests to pub signs. The study of heraldry requires knowledge of a specialised vocabulary derived from Norman French, including terms like 'gules' (red), 'argent' (silver), and 'sable' (black).
