Anéžka Blue Tyger pointed out that this submission might have a charge group issue with an overall charge maintaining a much smaller charge, per Appendix I5. I will be honest with the College and say that I have not had the spare time to investigate the precedents myself, so we are letting this one go through to Wreath's judgement and will advise the submitter as needed if a resub becomes necessary.

Azure, three masks Or

Old Item: Sable, a cross moline argent, in canton a bezant., to be retained as a badge.

Tir Righ submission

This device and the badge submitted along with it are the first submission and therefore defining instance of such a leather mask.

From the GIM Historical Museum, Russia:

Partial excerpt from that page:

Novgorod

The second half of the XIII century

A cattle's leather; a cutting out technique

13,5 x 15 cm

From: found by the archeological expedition to Novgorod led by A.B. Artsikhovsky; donated to the museum in 1967.

The mask depicts a laughing human face, which is emphasized by the narrowed slits for the eyes and the highly raised corners of the mouth with the exposed lower line of the teeth.

In Internal commentary there was discussion of what this previously unsubmitted charge would conflict with, general consensus being the more common masks of comedy/tragedy.

If blazoned as a "leather mask" to more reliably differentiate this from the standard comedy/tragedy masks, per SENA A2B4b Other Artifacts this might carry a Step from Core Practice if these leather masks were not considered "general, everyday artifacts". https://heraldry.sca.org/sena.html#A2B4b

12: Ro Magdalena Freyin - New Name (KLoI) (NP) & New Device (KLoI)

Per fess sable and azure, three crescents in pall Or.

Language/Culture (German) most important.

Tir Righ submission

Submitter is from Lions Gate

All name elements are documented from articles by Aryanhwy merch Catmael.

Ro and Magdalena are feminine given names found in "German Names from 1495", https://www.ellipsis.cx/~liana/names/german/german1495.html. This data is from the Baden-Württemberg area. Per SENA App A, double-given names are a pattern requiring no further documentation for German.

Freyin is based on Frey, which is found in "German Names from 1495: Surnames", https://www.ellipsis.cx/~liana/names/german/surnames1495a-g.html. "Women's Surnames in 15th- and 16th-Century Germany", https://www.ellipsis.cx/~liana/names/german/womenssurnames.html, shows that feminine bynames were frequently formed by adding -in to the byname in High German dialects. Examples from the Baden-Württemberg area included Pfeifferin (from Pfeiffer), Kyferin (from Kyfer), and Schefferin (from Scheffer).

Our thanks to Palimpsest in our Internal, who re-documented this submission, and we can do no better than copy-paste her much improved version.

Tir Righ submission

Submitter is from Lions Gate.

There was discussion in the Internal about the positioning and blazon of the three crescents. The alternate blazon of "Per fess sable and azure, a decrescent, a crescent pendant, and a crescent bendwise Or" was provided.

Malyss Lions Blood provided a link to Scheibler's Armorial (https://www.digitale-sammlungen.de/en/details/bsb00007174) and pointed out the submitted emblazon thus follows a period design and arrangement.

"de Cunningham" is previously registered to the submitter as 13th C Scots.

This was posted to our Internal as a New Alternate Name Change but that was a filing error on my part. It is simply a New Alternate Name. I think I finally have the correct selections made in OSCAR for this External.

Correction to Alternate Name (2023-Oct-12 22:10:07): Apparently I did not, in fact, find the correct OSCAR tick boxes. This is NOT a New Alternate Name Change, it is in fact supposed to be simply a New Alternate Name.

Apologies for the mis-filing.
