medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
So . . . I know this is an elementary question, but what is the
current consensus (if any) on what the Oriflamme actually looked
like? Was there just one, or were there many, and if many, were they
all alike? I seem to remember seeing a remarkable diversity of
descriptions of its possible color, shape, decoration and so forth.
I'm teaching a class on banners and standards at the end of next
month and would welcome brief descriptions or references.
