SCA Sociology
This is a collection of files that I have assembled from various sourcessince I first joined the SCA (Society for Creative Anachronism) in 1989.The information in these files comes from the Rialto newsgroup (rec.org.sca),the old fidonet medieval echo conferance area, various mail lists and articlessubmitted to me by their authors.Several types of files are available:
