Campbell Arms: An Introduction to Scottish Heraldry
Tuesday 21 September 2010 at 6:00 p.m.

By Paul Campbell

In the era of the clans in Scotland, the Campbells were one of the most successful, arguably the most successful, rising to positions of great power and influence. Part of that success is attributable to the fact that they were one of the most extensive clans. As the rule in Scotland can be summarized as “one man, one coat,” Campbell heraldry is also extensive, and this can be used to explain the characteristics of Scots heraldry. Our speaker will be Paul Campbell, Editor of the Journal of Clan Campbell Society (North America), Member of the Advisory Board of the American College of Heraldry, member of the Heraldry Society of Scotland, member of the Clan Campbell Society (N.A,) and a Scottish armiger, who will introduce Scottish heraldry using the arms of members of Clan Campbell as examples. It will be an evening of gyronnies of eight suitably differenced!
