Word origin
The word 'herald' comes from the Old French term 'erald' which itself derives from the Germanic root related to 'army' and 'leader'. Initially, the term was used to describe a person who would proclaim news, especially related to battles or royal announcements. In medieval times, heralds were often officials tasked with conveying messages, especially during tournaments and ceremonies, where they would announce the actions and lineage of knights and nobles. Over the centuries, the use of the term has evolved to describe the act of announcing any significant news or events, much beyond its original contexts.
