Araldika Malta (Malta Heraldry) is proud to publish the first edition of ‘The Maltese Herald’ on the occasion of the International Heraldry Day. On this date in 1128 AD, Geoffrey Plantagenet was presented by his father-in-law, King Henry I of England in Rouen, France with a blue shield bearing six gold lions. The occasion was of international significance – Geoffrey was French; he was knighted by King Henry I the English father of his bride Matilda, who was daughter of Edith of Scotland and the widow of the Holy Roman Emperor Henry V of Germany.
