The systematic application of hereditary devices centered on the shield has been defined as their company. Their rules have continued to evolve since the second quarter of the 12th century, when the first known The Heraldry Society shield was made. This process is still ongoing. In the beginning, only high-ranking knights and noblemen were allowed to own personal arms because it was a sign of great honor and social status. Supplements to The Heraldry Society are other adornments knights carry or wear during battle. The banner and crest are examples of these. In place of the shield, the badge is a quasi-heraldic device. In the beginning, nobleman's retainers wore it as part of their livery, and heraldic supporters frequently drew inspiration from such badges.
