To overcome this, the practice of painting unique combinations of colours, shapes and animals, called their 'arms', on their shields and banners came into being. Only one person was allowed to use these arms, so when people saw a knight wearing them in a battle or tournament, they could tell who he was.

Eventually the symbols migrated to battlefield shields and from there to the surcoats of men in armour, from which we may derive the term “coat of arms”.

Each coat of arms should be unique. The arms should be distinguishable at a distance, so the majority of components should be large, simple and composed of a very few tinctures (colours). The main charge (design on the shield) should cover its field (the whole of the space available on the shield).

¿Cómo empezó la heráldica?


To overcome this, the practice of painting unique combinations of colours, shapes and animals, called their 'arms', on their shields and banners came into being. Only one person was allowed to use these arms, so when people saw a knight wearing them in a battle or tournament, they could tell who he was.

Eventually the symbols migrated to battlefield shields and from there to the surcoats of men in armour, from which we may derive the term “coat of arms”.

Each coat of arms should be unique. The arms should be distinguishable at a distance, so the majority of components should be large, simple and composed of a very few tinctures (colours). The main charge (design on the shield) should cover its field (the whole of the space available on the shield).

Heraldry is about showing people who you are.

¿Qué es el código heráldico?


Originally the passport or DNA record of its time, there was no room for ambiguity, since it was used not only to pinpoint identity but also for faithful reproduction.

Over the centuries its precision has benefited both historical research and artists and craftsmen demonstrating their skills in accurately reproducing the arms it described.



3

¿Cuáles son los colores de la heráldica y los patrones de la heráldica y cuáles son las reglas en su aplicación?


Plus the two 'metals'

Gold or yellow = Or
Silver or white = Argent

Table of tinctures and hatchings

To ensure the clarity of contrast, heraldry created two rules:

A colour object should not be placed upon a colour field.
A metal object should not be placed upon a metal field.
In design colours had to be separated by a metal.

The Tinctures’ Colour Code for placing on the shield:

Red Gules - Vertical lines.
Green Vert - Diagonal left lines.
Blue Azure - Horizontal lines.
Black Sable - Squares.
Purple Purpure - Diagonal right lines.
Silver Argent - Blank.
Gold Or – Dots.

Areas of the shield could be also filled with patterns called Furs, the most common being:

Ermine: representing the white winter fur of stoats, with their black tail tips.
Vair: representing grey squirrel skins, in blue and white.

If something (say a dog or badger) is shown in its natural colours, it's called proper.

The rules do not apply to Furs or graphical charges coloured proper.



4

¿Cuáles son las cualidades/valores que representan las tinturas/colores y pieles?


Furs refer to patterned designs on the Escutcheon.

They also have meanings:

Ermine White (the most common fur) Valour, justice and dignity. This is a regal fur, since ermine has long been associated with the crowns and robes of royal and noble persons.
Pean Black (a representation of Ermine) Valour, justice and dignity.
Ermine Black (the reverse of Ermine White) Valour, justice and dignity.
Erminois Gold (the reverse of Pean Black) Valour, justice and dignity.
Vair (Blue and White bell shapes) Great wealth.



5

¿Qué son las piezas heráldicas y dar ejemplos?


Ordinaries are the simple shapes used on heraldic shields, against a colour, metal or fur background.

The shield, or escutcheon, has changed shape over the centuries but its surface (‘field’) has always been the area on which armorial bearings are usually displayed. The shape used is of personal choice.

The face (‘field’) of the shield was divided into different blocks of colour that were echoed in the development of a variety of shapes which, when arranged on a knight’s shield in a particular design, were said to be their owner’s ‘arms’.

As this peculiar science-cum-art developed and became regulated by the heralds, the shapes were named, described and categorised as the Ordinaries.

Some of the Ordinaries are listed below:

Fess = horizontal stripe across the shield Chevron = like a house gable, pointing upwards Chief = bar across top edge of shield
Pale = vertical stripe down the shield Cross = a plain cross Bordure = border round edges of shield
Bend = diagonal stripe Saltire = a 'St. Andrew's cross' Pile = downward-pointing triangle


Also, the shield can be divided into two colours, either vertically or horizontally, or into four different-coloured quarters.

Ordinaries



6

¿Qué llevó a la introducción de las cargas gráficas?


The solution – graphical charges – opened a vast, less geometric, array of images.

Charges are emblems added to the shield, on the background, the 'ordinary', or both. There can be one big charge, or several smaller repeated ones and of any colour.

Anything seen or imagined could be represented either in its natural colours or in a fanciful, stylised version.

In the animate category, animals, birds, fish, reptiles, insects and monsters were all possibilities, as were divine or human beings.

As for inanimate objects, everything appeared from an anchor and an axe to a wheel and a woolpack by way of trees, plants, flowers and celestial objects.



7

¿Cómo se exhibieron las cargas sobre los animales?


Any animal - either one big one or several smaller - can be used as a charge. They can be shown in many different ways, for instance:

Rearing up (rampant) - like the lion in the pictures.
Standing (statant) - like the lion standing.
For birds, with wings outstretched (displayed) - like the eagle.
Walking along (passant) - like the other lion.

If the animal is looking towards you, it is also guardant or 'on guard'. So the lion in the picture looking is passant guardant.

The ancient royal arms of England are three golden lions, one above the other, walking along on a red shield: or in heraldic code gules three lions passant guardant.

In a semicircle of flags, the national flag should be in the centre.

When flown with state, province and house flags, the order of precedence is national, state or province and then house.

  • Rampant

  • Statant

  • Displayed

  • Passant

  • Guardant

Hacer una lista de seis animales y las cualidades que simbolizan asociadas con la heráldica.




9

¿Qué llevó a la introducción de bestias fabulosas en la heráldica y qué representan?


Some that were used included:

Dragon: the earliest and most common fabulous beast, also used as a badge by Romans, Anglo-Saxons and Welsh. A brave and cunning defender of treasure.
Griffin: a combination of lion and eagle. Symbolises watchfulness and courage - and also guards treasure.
Cockatrice: a cross between a cockerel and a dragon, supposedly hatched from a cock's egg [!] by a snake or toad. Could kill by looking at you, and symbolised protection.
Manticore or 'man-tiger': a fearsome man-eating creature with a lion's body, man's face, tusks, horns and a deafening trumpet-like voice.
