		FIELD HERALDRY -Taran of Windy Hill Being a short treatise on the Art and Science of Heraldry as practiced in these Current Middle Ages upon the Field of Honor and the Fields of War, with some small digressions of the author's into the life of a herault.
		The study of Field Heraldry itself may be divided between those practices appertaining to the single combat, those involved in making announcements to the populace there assembled, those involving the Melee large or small, and Heraldry in War.
		If the list field area is large, or the available heraults not up to the task through fatigue or other inability, or if there are frequent announcements which need to be made, the herault in charge may desire not to suspend the events of the Tourney to make his proclamations.

		Heraldry evolved as a science sometime during the twelfth century from a combination of symbols used for seals, banners, and other types of insignia.

		This paper has described the terminology of heraldry, given a brief history of why and how its symbolic code came to be, and examined the arms of major and minor characters in several versions of the legend of Tristram and Isoud in the light of that symbolic code.
