The Roll of Arms of

An Dun Theine

This is the Roll of Arms of An Dun Theine, current as of  06 July 2004.

  The Crests, Supporters and anything else besides the Device (the Shield) is my own artistic work - if anybody does not like what I have done with their Arms or Achievement, please tell me and we can talk about a bribe to make me change it....

One remark from a purely scientific standpoint : This Shire has many devices which use the colors green (vert) and purple (purpure) - but those two colors were actually the least common heraldic tinctures ever! Strange, isn't it?
