An Israeli production is beginning, which includes jousting and hand-to-hand combat as well as a Crusader-era feast, all in authentic settings. The three major Crusades in the Holy Land were military campaigns that the church and the Pope sanctioned, which took place from 1095 to about 1204.

Sir Lancelot is credited as being the best jouster of the Knights.',700,700);)
