History

The Rising Star of Ansteorra was created by the 19th Crown, Mikael of Monmouthshire and Rebekka die Blonde, XXII (1988).

"The insignia for this award was designed by Angelia Panattoni in 1987. She was a teen at the time, and her design won a contest I had held when I was Kingdom Minister of Children. I do not know her SCA name, but she is the daughter of Baroness Angelina Panattoni and Baron Sir Olaf of Karkoff. There are a number of people who were active at that time who can vouch for the truth of this statement. Angelia recently passed away, and I would like her contribution to the history of the MOC to be a matter of record. I am Baroness Haldana Jensdottir, living in the East but always and forever an Ansteorran."
