#93Cormac Mór. Badge. (Fieldless) A punner Or. This is the defining instance of a punner, or pile-driver, in Society armory. Blazoned as a rammbock in German armory, that term is most frequently translated as pile-driver in English. According to the OED, punner is a 1611 spelling of a tool for pounding, or ramming, earth about a post. While we typically only search for synonyms of a common term when preserving a cant upon a surname, it seems within the bounds of reason to use the period term the submitter preferred. http://heraldry.sca.org/loar/2011/10/11-10lar.html (also see the submission on OSCAR - https://oscar.sca.org/index.php?action=145&id=17674 )
