King Arthur

King ArthurIn Arthurian legend, the table of Arthur, Britain's legendary king identified as Arthwyr Pendragon, told of King Arthur's having a round table made so that none of his barons, when seated at it, could claim precedence over the others. The literary importance of the Round Table, especially in romances of the 13th century and afterward, lies in the fact that it served to provide the knights of Arthur's court with a name and a collective personality.
The fellowship of the Round Table became comparable to, and in many respects the prototype of, the many great orders of chivalry that were founded in Europe during the later Middle Ages.
