Dear All
I wonder if anyone can help, I am David Debono, not a historian or
such like but am very interested in medieval History, about time I
came out of the darkness and announced myself I suppose.
But to the question, I have been asked if there wsa any sort of
award/recognition given to Monks or Brothers in the period 1300-1400
or so that would have been the equivalent of a "Garter Knight" or some
such, I appreciate that most of the orders at the time were noted for
their dicipline, not owning property and so on, but there must, I
would have thought, been a form of recognition, by the pope or
whatever for good service?.
I hope that makes some sort of sense and any thoughts greatly
appreciated.
David Debono
