Ark of the Covenant (Period)

The Ark of the Covenant is the highly ornamented chest in which the Israelites kept the tablets of the Law.  As an heraldic charge, it’s described by Legh, 1562 [101], who attributes it to the Levites; the Ark is therefore accepted for Society use.  It is depicted in slightly trian aspect.

Henil von Berg bears:  Gules, the Ark of the Covenant Or.
