Thanks for your comments but I must refer to my original message where I
DID mention the original Orders formed in the Holy Land about the time of
the 1st crusade. I must go back to my original point that whilst the
concept of 'chivalry' most certainly existed there was no such thing as
'The Order of Chivalry'. There were certainly early Knightly associations
which ofcourse each had a diferent names. The first secular Order of
Chivalry in the modern sence was the Order of the Golden Fleece created by
the Duke of Burgundy and imitated in the Garter, both of these
organisations dating from th 14th cent are extant.
But when all is said and done we are compairing apples and oranges, the
SCA has created its own Order, and good luck to them, in this age I wish
more people were interested in such ideals. But what is the point of
pretending that somthing existed in the middle ages that didnt? Only the
politicly corect crowd are into that kind of nonsense.
Kind regards,  Tim Pickles
