"Huchehault"
is
a character who, strangely enough, can be encountered in many
different periods of history. Whatever
century you like,
there is a good chance to meet him there. And if he is there,
be sure that he has many things to tell about his everyday life
and about all the events and battles he has witnessed in this
historical period.

"Huchehault",
what a strange name...
...it
comes from the old
french "hucher" (= to shout) ; and "hault"
is an old spelling of "haut" (= high) ; so "Huche-hault"
is "the guy who shouts very loud"...
Do
not be afraid however
: as we say in Brittany, "he barks but he doesn't bite !"
Some friendly british re-enactors have even found another translation : they call me "captain Shout"...

Hey, how many
home
pages are in this
website ? There should be only one !
Well, no,
there's
quite a lot of secondary
home pages in here...
...because
this
site deals with differents
historical periods, in at least three different languages : celtic
Breton, French, and English, and I didn't want to put any of these
languages above the others.
So there's a
home
page for every main
subject (miscellaneous re-enactment, late medieval info, and late
17th C info), in each of the three languages. Don't worry for
the headaches of the webmaster, I've got used to both... ;o)
