Welcome to Politarchopolis
This is the web site of the Canberra, Australia, branch of the Society for Creative Anachronism. We are an educational, non-profit organisation dedicated to the study and re-creation of all aspects of life in pre-17th-century medieval and renaissance society.
On behalf of Aonghus Mac Greigor and Ginevra Lucia Di Namoraza, the Baron and Baroness of Politarchopolis, we bid you welcome.
This site is maintained by the baronial Hierophant (website administrator), Lord Andreas Reinhardt, mundanely known as Anthony “Macca” McIntosh. If you find anything missing or broken, please contact him directly at hierophant@flurf.net, or via our contacts page.
New Features
This is a completely new site, much simpler than the silly complicated one that the previous Hierophant invented. It has the following exciting features, all of which you can reach from the sidebar menu:
The baronial newsletter, Griffintayle, is now a weekly blog containing news, what is happening, links to interesting things and lots more!
The photo gallery will grow to contain a photographic record of the people and events of the barony. If you have something to add, or would like permission to reprint or republish any of the photos therein, go there and follow the links.
The Roll of Arms is a list of the baronial awards received by everyone in the barony. It’s a little out of date, but we’re getting there.
