Jesters A jester, joker, jokester, fool, wit-cracker, prankster, or buffoon is a member of a profession that came into popularity in the Middle Ages. Jesters are always thought to have worn brightly colored clothes and eccentric hats in a motley pattern. Their hats, sometimes called the cap ’n’ bells, cockscomb (obsolete coxcomb), were especially distinctive; made of cloth, they were floppy with three points (liliripes) each of which had a jingle bell at the end. The three points of the hat represent the donkey's ears and tail worn by jesters in earlier times. Other things distinctive about the jester were his laughter and his mock sceptre, known as a bauble or marotte. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jester
“Mimus is a splendid tale of high adventure aand low humour, of treachery and cruelty and unexpected kindness. This wonderfully written epic will chill your blood, tickle your funny bone, and warm your heart.” Karen Cushman, Newberry Medal Winner
