There are many SCA related websites on the internet, but the following links are to websites specifically aimed toward the newbie so they can find out all they can about the SCA and how to live in the Current Middle Ages.

  • Society for Creative Anachronism Official Website for the SCA. Go here to find a group near you and other resources for joining the SCA.
  • SCA Newcomers Page A Very nice site with links to various topics, articles and resources every newcomer should see!
  • Research Articles, Research and Links to help you learn the art of researching for your SCA persona.
  • Forward Into the Past An Introductory Guide to the SCA published by the SCA.
  • The Medieval Times Newsletter
  • Kestrel's SCA Page SCA, SCA related sites, and Sites of interest to members in the SCA.
  • Renaissance Magazine Medieval Links SCA, SCA related sites, and Sites of interest to members in the SCA.
  • Medieval Scotland Collection of Articles and Resources for those interested in Scotland between 500 - 1603
  • Stefan's Florilegium A compilation of research, discussion group posts, articles and files. A treasurehouse of information!
  • The Academy of Saint Gabriel does historical research on names and heraldry, primarily for history hobbyists interested in re-creating medieval and Renaissance Western cultures. The Academy will give you information about the authenticity of your name or arms; and if they believe it could be more authentic, they will suggest ways to improve it. However, they cannot help you with questions about genealogy or family arms. They also generally do not help people trace the origins of modern surnames.
