What is Lancelot?
'''Sir Lancelot''' was a character in the legend of [[King Arthur]], and was a [[Knight of the Round Table]]. Sir Lancelot of the Lake was one of the most trusted knights of King Arthur's [[Round Table]], but this soon changed when he fell in love with the king's wife, Queen [[Guinevere]]. He was raised by the [[Lady of the Lake]], hence his title Lancelot Du Lac. Sir Lancelot was the only knight known to defeat King Arthur during a jousting match. He is also known briefly as the father of Sir Galahad, the greatest knight of all Camelot. He was a Red Cross Knight, which meant that he was one of the knights who was in the quest to find the Holy Grail. ==Related pages== *[[Courtly love]] {{stub}} [[Category:Arthurian legend]]
