The Pilgrim of the Desert is given to people who promote historical authenticity in the recreation of the Current Middle Ages. As the SCA is an immersive history group where we research and re-create pre-17th century activities, it is fitting that we recognize those who endeavor to create a high standard of authenticity in their dress, behavior, persona, and goods, in the feast hall, in their encampments, and on the field.
