Heraldry Motivation : Imagine you're a knight in battle, you can't tell friend from foe, and then you realize your friends don't recognize you either. You need a new plan. This is it. Its is time to make a coat of arms

In the early twelfth century, helmets and other armor began  making it difficult to tell armed warriors apart. The solution was for each knight or soldier to paint  something personal on their shield. These designs were important in battle, but they also functioned like  team uniforms when knights met in tournaments. Overtime, shield emblem designs became enduring  symbols of their owners, and of their owners' families.  It became quite fashionable to have a "coat of arms", so people hired artists to design them. The designs  weren't just used on shields. They were applied on tunics, saddle blankets, banners and tapestries. They  were duplicated in sculpture and architectural features. They were used in signs and advertisements.  They were carved into coins, jewelry (e.g. signet rings) and the personalized stamps for sealing letters. Coats of Arms date to the early Middle Ages
