  Notes and Comments

  *1     "&c" is a scribal abbreviation for "et cetera" meaning "and others" or "and so forth". More commonly abbreviated in English as "etc." [Lucinda Welenc]
This symbol occurs in 10 of the 12 legends with specific reference to the Mongols (1220-1478) and the Turks (1617-1809). Who are "&c"? Submit comment(s).

  *2     "Brandenbg" is most likely "Brandenburg" with the "ur" omitted due to space constraints - see legend circa 1701. Both "Brandenbg" and "Brandenburg" are indexed. Submit comment(s).

  *3     No comment as to the relevance of change from the plural Orders to singular Order. Unless otherwise noted, the singular form Order is used as standard for indexing. Submit comment(s).

  *4     No comment as to the relevance of change from Brandenburg & Prussia to Prussia & Brandenbg. Is the order in which peoples are represented related to the majority or power of peoples? Both are indexed. Submit comment(s).
