Knights Templar
A military order of warrior monks who won glory on the battlefields of the Holy Land in the 12th and 13th centuries, the Knights Templar have become the stuff of legend. The Templars were originally formed in the city of Jerusalem in around 1118-19 to protect Christian pilgrims from the west as they travelled around the Holy Land. Their role later developed so that, instead of just protecting the pilgrims, they began fighting in elite units in crusader armies. The Knights Templar have been fictionalised in the television drama <em>Knightfall</em>
