A Plea For The Antiquity Of Heraldry: With An Attempt To Expound Its Theory And Elucidate Its History is a book written by William Smith Ellis in 1853. This book aims to defend the antiquity of heraldry and explain its theory and history. Heraldry is the study and use of coats of arms and other insignia to distinguish individuals and families. The author argues that heraldry is not a recent invention but has existed since ancient times. He provides evidence from various sources, including ancient Greek and Roman literature, to support his argument. The book also explores the meaning and symbolism behind different heraldic devices and how they have evolved over time. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and significance of heraldry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
