The legend of King Arthur began in the twelfth century AD by bards who traversed Europe.
The Celtic nation that once ruled the United Kingdom was ruled by the Roman Empire in the first century AD. After the sixth century, the Germanic nation invaded one after another, and its power gradually declined, and was finally forced to give up the British throne. According to legend, Arthur appeared as a Celtic hero during the period of Germanic invasion. He led the tribes to defeat the Saxons belonging to the Germanic tribe in a battle called the Battle of Mount Barton. He was a famous legend in medieval England.
However, Arthur's image continued to change with the evolution of the legend, and finally evolved into the king who ruled Britain and became the leader of the "Knights of the Round Table" who took Lancelot, Tristan and other legendary knights under his command. Heroes of the highest honor.
The King's Sword (Excalibur) and the Sword in the Stone (Caliburn, The Sword in the Stone) are the symbols of King Arthur's supreme kingship. Wearing this king's sword with elven magic, it makes the knights bow their heads and serve as their servants, not only to establish his own throne. , and also won many battles and returned triumphantly.
In Celtic mythology, the search for the Holy Grail is a sacred and great theme, "where the mighty dwells", and only those who are worthy can find the Holy Grail. The search for the Holy Grail is the most dangerous and greatest feat of all hero quests. Therefore, countless knights have embarked on the road of no return in search of the Holy Grail.
The Knights of the Round Table, or the Knights of the Round Table, were the highest-ranking knights in the Arthurian court in medieval British material, first appearing in the Norman poet Weiss' "British Tales" in 1155. The number of Knights of the Round Table varies from version to version, ranging from 12 to 150 or more. Unlike the long table, which has primary and secondary and opposing relationships, the round table represents participants with equal rights.
According to legend, the Knights of the Round Table obeyed the orders of King Arthur and made it his duty to protect the peace of the kingdom. The 15th-century English writer Sir Thomas Mallory described the ordinance of chivalry as:
never rage and murder
never betray
Never be cruel, give forgiveness to those who ask for it
always give assistance to ladies
never bully lady
Never get involved in a quarrel over love or the advantage of words
