Origins was used to help figure out who the righteous leader in many situations was.

On the flip-side, the coat of arms of a family in the times of royalty where often used to help figure out family tree or lineage --so-to-speak. This is actually known as heraldry. It is the ancestry of royalty that was used in the quartering of the coat of arms of a family.
