Note 1324 — Chapter XV · THE NORMAN INVASION AND THE CAMPAIGN OF HASTINGS.[1055] (continued 2)
Reading edition
Ord. Vit. 501 B. “Turstinus filius Rollonis vexillum Normannorum portavit.” Roman de Rou, 12773;
“Tosteins filz Rou le Blanc out non,
Al Bec en Caux aveit meison.”
William of Poitiers (132) says only, “Vexillo prævio quod Apostolicus transmiserat,” without mentioning the bearer. I cannot see the banner in the Tapestry.
