What do you find under
<http://sca.org/heraldry/laurel/precedents.html>?  There's one that
might be tangentally applicable in Elbeth's time, so far as I can tell
at a glance (I should have been in bed a while ago, and it depends on
what "Concetta" is), something you should read in Da'ud 2.2, and maybe
something earlier.
