The
word 'knight' means 'mounted warrior'. By the 1100s a code of chivalry had
been developed by which knights were expected to defend his Christian faith,
to behave honourably towards his enemies and to protect the weak and poor.
By the 1200s the landscape was dominated by knight's castles. In the 11th and 12th century large numbers of knights left Europe on
Crusade in the name of Christianity.
The
4cm tall figure is supplied on a silver coloured key-chain. The figures are
supplied in 1 of 5 designs.
