There were several objects that played an important role in the stories
and legends of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. The most
obvious was the Round Table which
was given to Arthur as Guinevere's dowry when they were married. The Table
became the place where the Knights gathered and symbolized equality, unity,
and oneness.
There was also Excalibur, the beautiful, magical sword that was given to
Arthur by the Lady of the Lake. Excalibur was extremely powerful and at
the Last Battle of Camlann, Arthur had Bedivere throw Excalibur back into
the lake from whence it came. Finally, there was the Holy Grail. Much of
Arthurian Tradition hinges on the Quest for the Grail.
