The day before his dubbing, the candidate had his hair cut in order to humble himself before God. After this, the candidate would be ritually bathed by his a group consisting of his knight and his knights peers. This symbolized that he was washed free of the sins of his previous life, making him ready to enter his new life with pride and dignity. The candidate would then be dressed in a tunic of white linen, covered with a red cloak, shod with black shoes, and laid on a bed. The white linen was a symbol of his new purity. The Red Cloak was a reminder that he would be required to spill blood in order to defend his God, his King and his people. The black shoes symbolized death and lying on the bed was to remind him that through virtue he would lie comfortably in heaven. After this, the squire attended a banquet, receiving the last meal he would receive prior to becoming a Knight. Following the banquet, the candidate began his Vigil at Arms. He placed his weapons before the altar, that they might be blessed. He then remained before the altar in prayer and contemplation throughout the night. To aid the candidate in staying awake through his vigil, well wishers would come to instruct the candidate in the ways, honor and history of the orders of peerage and knighthood.

Byzantine Ceremonial:

CONSTANTINE VII PORPHYROGENITUS, DE CERIMONIIS AULAE BYZANTINAE
By Leonora Neville…
Byzantine promotion ceremonies
Byzantine imperial titles were granted either by the emperor through the ceremonial bestowal of a prize, brabeion, or through an oral pronouncement, dia logou…. The titles granted through brabeion appear to have been honorary while those granted dia logou concerned offices.
The late ninth-century treatise on court precedence, the Kleterologion of Philotheos, described the process of receiving a title dia brabeiou:
The gifts of imperial honors… are bestowed upon the worthy by the divinely promoted emperors on the holy and wondrous imperial steps of the brilliant chysotriklinos on auspicious days with the whole order of the imperial hall standing nearby and with their prizes lying near the imperial authority. They who are about to be honored are clothed in garnet cloaks and prepared outside of the curtain by the appointed imperial protospatharios . Before their entrance, three spatharophoroi of the same rank as those about to be honored enter with the imperial doorman, and making the customary reverence, they wait standing before the curtain for the presence of the candidate. And just as the curtain falls, the protospatharios of the imperials enters with the imperial doorman leading the one who is about to be received. [The protospatharios] urges him to make a prostration in three places. He stands him before the face of the emperor to take the prize of honor from the emperor’s hands. After he gets the prize from the emperor, the protospatharios pulls him away backwards (?) and adorns him with the prize given by the emperor and then moving [the candidate] forward makes him embrace the holy feet of the emperor. Then led down to those below, he is greeted by the men of the same rank as a friend of equal honor. Then, completing the reverence to the emperor, they shout thanks with a prostration and go out with [the candidate]. [file:///Users/paulstep/Desktop/Current%20%28OS%20X%29/Translations/Promotion%20ceremonies.htm#_edn1 [1]]
The De cerimoniis includes numerous protocols for promotion to an office by proclamation, dia logou. The following is fairly typical:
The emperor orders the logothete to introduce the one who ought to be promoted . . . and having come inside the swept curtain of the chrysotriklinos, he (the logothete?) falls to the ground, prostrating before the emperor. Then the logothete stands and precedes him. [The candidate] comes forward and stands a little way from the emperor. The emperor exhorts him to manage and direct the service entrusted to him with truth, justice, and the fear of God, and to regard the subjects irrespective of gifts and persons, and to do all others things befitting those entrusted with such a charge…. After the proper things have been said, the emperor says to him: “In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, my God-given majesty promotes you domestikos of the God-guarded scholai.” And immediately he [the candidate?] falls to the ground and makes a prostration, then he kisses the feet of the great emperor and thus little by little he is led out by the logothete to the clock that is in the door of the chrysotriklinos . And the logothete hands him over to the praipositoi saying: “Our holy and God-led emperors promoted this one <nowiki><title>. ” And the praipositoi make the customary prayers for the emperors and they take him up and they lead him to the Lausiakos and the protopraipositos says to all: “Our holy and God-led emperors promoted this one <title>. ” And everyone prays the “many-years.” [see the coronation stuff below] </nowiki>[file:///Users/paulstep/Desktop/Current%20%28OS%20X%29/Translations/Promotion%20ceremonies.htm#_edn2 [2]]

Those things which must be observed at the coronation of the emperor
All arrive with robes, and the whole senate and the officers of the Schools and the other regiments …assume … the insignia for escorting the sovereigns, and when all is ready, the emperor [http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_edn1 1] departs the Augusteion, wearing his skaramangion and purple sagion , [http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_edn2 2] escorted by [his personal staff]… and proceeds as far as the Onopodion, [http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_edn3 3] and the first reception of the patricians occurs at the Onopodion, where the [Master] of Ceremonies ( o epi tês katastaseôs ) says “'''May you reign [serve]'''” and they [the patricians] acclaim “'''For many and good years'''.” Then they process down as far as the great Konsistorion, and within the Konsistorion are standing the consuls and the rest of the senators, and the sovereigns stand in the kiborion , and all the senators together with the patricians prostrate themselves. As they rise, the sovereigns give a sign to the praipositos , and the silentarios [http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_edn4 4] intones “'''At your command''',” and they [the senators and patricians] acclaim “'''For many and good years'''.” And they move off into the church [of Holy Wisdom, Hagia Sophia] through the Schools, and the demes properly attired are standing in their [assigned] places, making only the sign of the cross. [http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_edn5 5]
And when the emperor has entered the Horologion, the '''entrance [curtain] is raised''', and he goes into the mêtatorion and changes into the divêtêsion and the tzitzakion and throws over them the sagion , [http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_edn6 6]and enters with the patriarch and '''lights candles''' on the silver doors, and entering the nave and he proceeds to the solaia and prays before the holy gates, '''with lighted candles''', and returns into the ambo together with the patriarch. Then the patriarch '''says a prayer over the chlamys''' , [http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_edn7 7] and when the prayer is complete the [servants] of the bedchamber '''take it and attire the emperor.''' And again [the patriarch] '''says a prayer, over the crown [wreath/cap/belt/collar]''' itself, and when that is complete, the patriarch himself '''takes the crown and places it on the head''' of the emperor, [http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_edn8 8] and immediately the people cry out “Holy, Holy, Holy.Glory to God in the highest and peace on earth.” Thrice. Then “O such a great emperor and autocrat, many years,” and again. And wearing the crown he goes down and enters the mêtatorion and sits on the sellion, [http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_edn9 9] and the dignitaries enter, prostrating themselves and kissing both his knees. Entrance one: the magisters [laurels?]; entrance two: the patricians and generals; third entrance: the first swordbearers (protospatharioi ); fourth entrance: [the commanders] of the army… ; the senatorial swordbearers ( spatharioi ) and consuls ( hypatoi ); fifth: the swordbearers ( spatharioi ); sixth: stratores ; seventh: counts of the Schools; eight: candidates of the cavalry; nine: skribônoi and domestikoi ; ten: asêkretai, bestêtores and silentarioi ; eleven: imperial mandatores and candidates of the infantry; twelve: counts of the arithmos , of the hikanatoi , tribunes ( tribounoi ), and counts of the fleet. [http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_edn10 10]
And the praipositos says “At your command,” and they acclaim “Many and good years,” then depart. The kiss of peace and communion are after the custom of feast days…
Acclamations of the demes at the coronation of the emperor:
With the regular solemnity observed, and when the despots have made their procession into the holy church, and all the ritual associated with the processions is completed, and the despots have ascended with the patriarch into the ambo (for there is placed an altar on which are set aside the chlamys and the crowns), then the '''patriarch says a prayer over the chlamys, and after the prayer the patriarch gives the chlamys to the great [i.e. senior] emperor'''. [http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_edn11 11] Then the senior emperor and the praipositoi '''put the chlamys on the newly-created emperor''', and again the '''patriarch says a prayer over the crowns''', and first with his own hands '''crowns the great emperor,''' then gives the [second] crown to the great emperor, and the '''[senior] emperor crowns the newly-created emperor,''' and immediately the two demes ( merê ) cry out, saying “'''Worthy'''.” And they bow low to the ground before the sceptres (skêptra, [alt. halberds]) and other insignia together with the banners, placed to the right and left on one side and the other, all of the senate and the demes standing on the right-hand side of the ambo to the east. And the chanters ( kraktai, [leaders of the demes] ) intone “'''Glory to God in the highest and peace on earth''',” which the people repeat thrice. The chanters: “'''Good will to Christian [honorable?] folk'''”, which the people repeat thrice. The chanters: “May God have mercy on his people.” The people repeat this three times. The chanters: “Today is the great day of the Lord.” The people repeat this three times. The chanters: “'''This is the day of the life of the Romans [Calontiri]'''.” The people repeat this three times. The chanters: “'''This [day] is the grace and glory of the world'''.” The people repeat this. The chanters: “'''On which [day] the crown of the empire [kingdom]'''.” The people repeat this. The chanters: “'''Is placed worthily on your head'''.” The people repeat this three times. The chanters: “'''Glory to God,the Lord of all.'''” The people repeat this. The chanters: “'''Glory to God for the crowning of your head.'''” The people repeat this. The chanters: “'''Glory to God for appointing you emperor.'''” The people repeat this. The chanters: “'''Glory to God for honouring you thusly.'''” The people repeat this. The chanters: “'''Glory to God for such benevolence'''.” The people repeat this. The chanters: “'''But you have been crowned, [so-an-so: insert name] [http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_edn12 12] emperor, by his own hand'''.” The people repeat this. The chanters: “'''so let him guard you for many years in the purple'''.” The people repeat this. The chanters: “together with the empresses and the purple-born children.” The people repeat this. The chanters: “'''for the glory and elevation of the Romans'''.” The people repeat this. The chanters: “Hearken, O God, to your people.” The people repeat this. The chanters: “Many, many, many.” The people: “Many years upon many.” The chanters: “'''Many years for you, [so-and-so] emperor and [so-and-so] emperors of the Romans.'''” The people: “'''Many years to you'''.” The chanters: “'''Many years to you, attendants of the Lord.'''” The people: “'''Many years to you.'''” The chanters: “'''Many years to [so-an-so] and [so-and-so] empresses of the Romans.'''” The people: “'''Many years to you'''.” The chanters: “'''Many years to you, the good fortune of the sceptres.'''” The people: “'''Many years to you.'''” The chanters: “Many years to you [so-and-so] emperor of the Romans.” The people: “Many years to you.” The chanters: “Many years to you, God-crowned [so-and-so].” The people: “Many years to you.” The chanters: “Many years to you, masters, together with the empresses and purple-born children.” The people: “Many years to you.” The chanters: “May the Creator and Master of all.” The people repeat this. The chanters: “who crowned you with his own hand.” The people repeat this. The chanters: “make full your years together with the empresses and the purple-born children.” The people repeat this. The chanters: “for the perfect guardianship ( systasin ) [http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_edn13 13] of the Roman people.
After these acclamations the two demes shout “Many years for the emperors,” and the rest of the acclamation, and invoke blessings on them, and so go out.

Notes
[http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_ednref1 1] The ruler is already called basileus , “emperor,” which may reflect his de facto authority, and hence his ability to arrange a coronation (see Yannopoulos, 1991). This suggests that several constitutive acts had already taken place, for example acclamation and raising on a shield. But as Majeska (1997, 2) notes, although the ceremonial arrival at Hagia Sophia for the coronation mirrors that of arrivals of a crowned emperor, the “emperor does not exercise any genuinely liturgical functions (such as entering the sancturary, kissing the altar, or censing, which he does at this point in similar ceremonies) until he has been raised to ‘sacred’ imperial status by his coronation.”
[http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_ednref2 2] On these imperial vestments, see Piltz 1997.
[http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_ednref3 3] The Augusteion, Onopodion, Konsistorion, etc., can all be located on a map in the vicinity of Hagia Sophia.
[http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_ednref4 4] You are encouraged to look up the entries for praipositos and silentarios, etc., in the ODB.
[http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_ednref5 5] The demes, or factions, whose costumes will have been blue and green, significantly do not acclaim the emperor at this stage.
[http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_ednref6 6] At this point take a look at the map provided by Majeska 1997, reproduced above. The Horologion is in the bottom right-hand corner.
[http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_ednref7 7] Texts of these prayers have been preserved. See Brightman 1901 and Tsirpanlis 1972 for translations.
[http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_ednref8 8] An exclamation by the patriarch may have been omitted here. Elsewhere it is attested that the patriarch shouts “Worthy” before the congregation replies with the acclamation beginning “Holy.” It is possible that the scribe skipped a line, since Agios (Holy) and Axios (Worthy) are so similar. See Majeska 1997, 3.
[http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_ednref9 9] The sellion appears to have been a small throne.
[http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_ednref10 10] These are references to various ranks and offices, mainly military. You are encouraged to look them up in the ODB.
[http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_ednref11 11] The following details the coronation of a junior, co-emperor.
[http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_ednref12 12] The Greek deina is placed where one would insert the name of the emperor.
[http://www.paulstephenson.info/trans/decer0.html#_ednref13 13] This word affords many alternative translations, including “political constitution,” “political union or unity,” and “solidity.” Tsirpanlis 1972, 71, offers “Unto perfect stablishment of the Romans.”

'''1: Tanczos Istvan''' – New Heraldic Title
OSCAR finds the name registered exactly as it appears in May of 2002, via the East
''Non Scripta Herald''
Istvan was granted the right to a personal title on the Cover Letter to the February 2011 LoAR, under the heading “From Olwyn, the retiring Laurel” http://heraldry.sca.org/loar/2011/02/11-02cl.html
This title is taken from the motto of the College of Arms, “Non Scripta, Non Est.” The first findable reference to this phrase as the motto is on the March 1987 LoAR. It is translated on the November 2001 LoAR as “if it isn’t in writing, it doesn’t exist”
The article “Heraldic Titles from the Middle Ages and Renaissance”, by Juliana da Luna (http://medievalscotland.org/jes/HeraldicTitlesSCA/index.shtml) lists roughly 100 titles based on mottoes.
Ursula Georges’ article on “Mottoes and Heraldry” lists quite a lot of heraldic mottoes in Latin. (http://www.doomchicken.net/~ursula/sca/motto/mottoesandheraldry.doc)
While precedent says “Ursula Georges does note that she has found no examples of heraldic titles formed from Latin mottos. However, there is a general pattern of titles so formed. Therefore, forming a heraldic title from a Latin motto is one step from period practice.” [Northshield, Kingdom of, March 2006, A-Northshield], that is the only step.
Ursula also provided documentation in email for the words and grammar: “Non scripta” literally means “things not having been written”. “Non” is the usual Latin word for not (see Lewis & Short s.v. non). “Scripta” is the neuter plural form of the perfect passive participle of the verb “scribo”, ‘I write’ (Lewis & Short s.v. scribo), used substantively. (Lewis & Short can be found at<nowiki/>http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/resolveform?redirect=true&lang=Latin)
October 2012 – Titles from Latin Mottoes
'''Tanczos Istvan.''' Heraldic title Non Scripta Herald.
This submission raises several interesting issues. First, commenters questioned whether mottoes that did not complete a thought (this means “things not having been written down”) were period. Period examples of mottoes (and titles derived from mottoes) that are incomplete thoughts include ''A ma vie'' “with my life (I will defend it),” ''Passe oultre'' “go further,” ''Plus Oultre'' “further beyond,”, and the like. In one case, the English College of Arms motto, ''Diligent and Secret'', is split and used as two separate titles. Thus, a title derived from part of the Laurel motto fits within a pattern of period heraldic titles.
What fits less well within that pattern is the language. The Laurel motto is Latin, and clearly constructed following the rules of period Latin. Latin mottoes are now known to be vanishing rare in period; their use in heraldic titles is a step from period practice under the Rules for Submissions. We decline to rule on their registerability under the Standards for Evaluation. Any future submission based on a Latin motto should include a discussion of the suitability of such a motto for a heraldic title.
http://heraldry.sca.org/loar/2012/10/12-10lar.html#158
On the suitability of a Latin motto for a heraldic title:
The October 2012 precedent states that Latin mottoes are “vanishing rare in period”. Ursula Georges has documented that in 16th and 17th Wales, a majority of mottoes that she could find were, in fact, Latin – 55.3%. A goodly number of her Latin examples are period and gray period. So it seems that Latin mottoes are not, in fact, “vanishing rare”. http://www.yarntheory.net/ursulageorges/motto/welshmottoes.html
“Non nobis” itself was well known in period as derived from the title of a famous Psalm and also inspired by classical passages from Virgil and Cicero.
Caxton’s 1483 edition of the Golden Legend has the saintly king, Edward the Confessor, praying the “Non nobis” Psalm after healing a blind man. Google Books:

King Henry had Non Nobis sung after the Battle of Agincourt in Shakespeare’s Henry V, Act 4, Scene VIII (published 1600), inspired by Hall’s 1542 Chronicle.

“Non nobis” seems to have been used regularly as an epigraph by both Catholic and Protestant authors and translators, including James Pilkington (''A godlie exposition upon certeine chapters of Nehemiah'', 1585), and the translators of Eusebius’s ''The auncient ecclesiasticall histories'' (1577), Gaspar Loarte’s ''The exercise of a christian life'' (1579), and the same author’s ''Instructions and advertisements, how to meditate the misteries of the rosarie'' (1597). – http://shaksper.net/current-postings/30914-non-nobis-and-te-deum-3
While I have not been able to find any heraldic titles derived from Latin mottoes (perhaps because Latin mottoes achieved peak popularity after many heraldic titles had already been established), Julia Smith’s article “Heraldic Titles from the Middle Ages and Renaissance: Overview” demonstrates that mottoes in general were a common source for heraldic titles. I believe that Ursula George’s article demonstrates that by late period, Latin mottoes were common enough that it would be plausible for a late period heraldic title to be derived from one. “Non nobis” in particular was known to be used in period mottoes, impresae and possibly also as a battle cry and would therefore seem particularly plausible for use in an heraldic title.
If the above is not convincing, I would be willing to accept the title Nobis Herald instead, based on the <family name> + <title> pattern from Julia Smith.

'''Locative German''' – German and titles include both regions and cities: Brandenburg Herald, Luxembourg Herald, Preußen King of Arms, and Beyeren Herald. However, other heraldic titles are derived from locations that are not associated with noble titles. These include the names of both cities and regions. In England, such titles includeDublin Herald, Agincourt Herald, and Bordeaux Herald. In France, titles such as Languedoc Herald and Saintonge Herald follow this pattern. In Spain, Pamplona Herald, Toledo Herald, and Jerusalem Herald appear, while in Portugal, titles like Ceuta Herald, Lisboa Herald, and Algarve Herald are found. One must remember that medieval overlords often controlled areas that are not in the equivalent modern countries: thus Bethune, in northern France, is used as a Spanish title, because it was a Hapsburg possession. However, some titles are clearly not real claims: Portugal has a Constantinople Herald, while a German herald was known as Jerusalem. http://medievalscotland.org/jes/HeraldicTitles/heraldic_titles_by_type.shtml#GERMAN_LOCATIVE
----Surnames
Surnames – Finally, a group of titles are derived from surnames, most of which are locative in nature; this is only clearly found in England, where knights who had no noble domains from which to derive a surname were allowed pursuivants. However, in France as well, family names are current possessions sometimes drift apart over time. Examples taken from surnames include Claveley Herald, Chandos Herald, and Mowbray Herald. There are a few heraldic titles derived from non-locative surnames in England; examples include Talbot Herald, Bardolph Herald, and Fitzwalter Pursuivant. There are a few examples from elsewhere of what may be non-locative surnames (the German Suchenwirt Herald, the French Toutain le Gras Pursuivant, and the Scottish Jop Herald), though it is possible that some of these are bynames rather than heraldic titles.

* Borrowing from Cicero, Petrarch advises an imitator to be like a bee, tasting from various flowers but transforming the nectar into a honey all its own.[[http://publishing.cdlib.org/ucpressebooks/view?docId=ft30000518&chunk.id=nsd0e62&toc.id=endnotes&toc.depth=1&brand=ucpress&anchor.id=d0e210#X 6]]

(We should imitate the bees, as they say, which wander and pluck suitable flowers to make honey, then carry whatever, they arrange and distribute through the honeycomb, just as our Virgil said: . . . they pack close the / liquid honey and fill the storehouse / with sweet nectar.http://nonnumadanda.blogspot.com/2010/09/seneca-letter-84.html [shorten to “apes debemus imitari” or even “'''apes imitari'''” (pl) “'''apis imitari'''” (sing.) ?]
* Erasmus’s advice echoed that of the Roman Seneca, who also used a botanical metaphor to describe the essential role that memory plays in reading and in thinking. “We should imitate bees,” Seneca wrote, “and we should keep in separate compartments whatever we have collected from our diverse reading, for things conserved separately keep better. Then, diligently applying all the resources of our native talent, we should mingle all the various nectars we have tasted, and then turn them into a single sweet substance, in such a way that, even if it is apparent where it originated, it appears quite different from what it was in its original state.”5 Memory, for Seneca as for Erasmus, was as much a crucible as a container. It was more than the sum of things remembered. It was something newly made, the essence of a unique self.

Bees and Beehives
'''“The ''Bee'' (saith the wiseman) is the least of Birds, but shee is of much vertue; and shee provideth both Hony for pleasure, and Waxe for thrift…. ''Bees'' have three properties of the best kinds of subjects, they sticke close to their King; they are very industrious for their liveli-hood, expelling all idle drones; they wil not sting any but such as first provoke them, and then they are most fierce.''' — John Guillim, ''A Display of Heraldry'', 1611
Bees are often used in canting arms based on the term for “bee” in various languages, such as Latin ''apis'', French ''abeille'', German ''Biene'', etc., and also on terms for “honey”, including Latin ''mella'', French or Spanish ''miel'', Italian ''miele'', German ''Honig''.
The default orientation for bees is ''tergiant'', sometimes also called ''volant en arrière''. Beehives also appear in armory, and they may be surrounded by a swarm of bees in various attitudes, which is termed ''a beehive beset with bees''

Also – http://www.heraldica.org/topics/insects.htm, “'''Bees''' appear as a canting device for a number of families: the English families Bye, Bee, Beebee, Beeston; the French families Abeille, Melet de Saint-Martin, Mellier, Mieulet (honey=miel in French); German family Biene; Flemish family Bezoet de Bie; Dutch family van Byemont; Spanish families Abello, Abella; Greek family Melisurgo de Melissenos; etc.”
