In the Matter of Britain literature cycle, the Knights of the Round Table are the knights from the company of King Arthur. The Knights are a fraternity committed to maintaining the peace of the kingdom of Arthur. After an early fighting period, they were later given the responsibility of engaging in a mysterious quest for the Holy Grail. The Knights first appear in literature around the middle of the 12th century. The Round Table, where they gathered, was a representation of the equality of its participants, who span from mighty kings to lowly lords. A variety of knights from Great Britain and other places abroad, some of them even from outside of Europe, were featured in the numerous storylines of the cycles. Far away relatives of Arthur like Agravain and Gaheris, as well as his accommodated foes and those he conquered in combat, such Galehaut and Lot, were frequently found in the ranks of the Round Table. The most famous knights, such as Bedivere, Gawain, Kay, and Yvain were modelled after older figures who were connected to Arthur in the Welsh version of the narrative. Numerous knights, including Gawain, Lancelot, Perciva and Tristan, frequently showed up in knightly romances as the main character or the title character. Galahad, a saintly knight who succeeded Percival in obtaining the Holy Grail and Mordred, a disloyal son of King Arthur, were among the other notable members of the group. After the infidelity of Lancelot with wife of King Arthur, Queen Guinevere, was made public toward the conclusion of the Arthurian prose cycles, the knights got divided into rival factions. The Knights of the Queen, i.e. the own exclusive order of youthful warriors and knights of Guinevere, were depicted alongside her in the same manner. Some of these love interests recount the history of the Knights of the Old Table, led by Uther Pendragon, father of Arthur, while other stories centre around the representatives of the Grail Table, who were the adherents of early Christian Joseph of Arimathea, whose Grail Table later served as the model for the subsequent Round Tables of Uther and Arthur.
