The “La Peregrina” pearl, given from Philip II to Mary I, will be going on display at the Smithsonian in Washington DC this week. The exhibit will run for about six months, so if you’re in the area, be sure to check out this piece of Tudor history!

I’ve got the search working again for the site. I ended up switching it to a Google site search, since I was having trouble with the one that came with my hosting plan. Unfortunately, that now means you’ll also get outside results from Google image search (on some searches), product results and Google’s Sponsored Links along the right side of the results page. But everything that shows up will be search hits from TudorHistory.org. Sorry for all the clutter, but for now it’s the easiest search solution.
I’ve also added links to the old “What’s New?” pages and the old News and Events pages along the left side of the blog.

Small update so far today… I’ve added the Tudor Rose icon from the site to the sidebar and it is linked back to the main site index page.

Hello all!
If you are a regular or semi-regular visitor to the site, you will notice that this blog has now taken the place of the “What’s New?” and the “Tudor News and Events” pages. I will still keep the archive of the old updates and articles up, but all new information will be on the blog.
For now I’m just going to use this neat template called “Scribe” that was already available at Blogger, since it sort of already matches the style of the pages here on the site. Once I get better at editing the template code, I’ll probably update the template to look like the other pages. Or maybe I’ll go with something completely different, depending on my mood. :^)
