the highest title of nobility in England,
ranking below the prince ,
introduced for the first time by
edward iii when bestowing various castles and
estates in
cornwall to
his son,
the black Prince.
the title,
imported from the continent,
originally meant a
military commander,
and the english retained this etymology by
endowing english dukes with special fees in war,
where command expertise was expected. In Germany,
the title ‘Herzog’
was equivalent,
though they were often elected and carried more administrative and social duties than military ones. A
duke is
properly addressed as ‘your grace â€™,
equivalent to
the rank of
archbishop in
the church hierarchy.
within the sca the title is
reserved for those gentles who have served twice as
king of an
sca kingdom,
won through the crown Tournament.
they are know by
coronets bearing strawberry leaves in
the familiar three leaf patterm,
ranking just below the princes of
the realm.
derived from the latin dux,
meaning "a leader;" Arabic, "a sheik."
this word is
used to
denote the phylarch or
chief of a
tribe (Gen. 36:15-43; Ex. 15:15; 1 Chr. 1:51-54).
