- Instead of the lozenge women usually bore in this period. On Rhodes there are two examples of lozenge shields: a stray find (inv. no.

- Features in common: strong contrast between broad and narrow letters, with identical D, P, R, E, F, I (with dot above), N, Q and K; the difference in the serifs of M and A is explained by the inlay technique employed in the Heredia slab. There is also a decorative dot in the middle of the stem of T; there are also dots between words.

- This is certain, although there were three more Joannas in the family. The first was the heiress of Tristan de Perier; she died in 1504. The second was the heiress of Jean de Perier, lord of Plessis-Balisson, son of Constance Gaudin and Jean IV de Perier; this Joanna was much younger that the one who died on Rhodes. The third Joanna was the daughter of Constance Gaudin and Jean IV de Perier, but apparently she married Bertrand Gouion and had nothing to do with the land of Quer or Kaer. In contrast, the sister of Tristan de Perier is the only one of the four immediately connected to this property, was sufficiently well-to-do and of the right age – Geoffroy V de Perier was much older than his half-siblings – and she had had her sights on the Holy Land since 1483. Finally, only she and her niece could display the Quintin arms in the 1st and 4th quarters of their device as their side of the family had had the upper hand in the quarrel over that honour.
