MEDIEVAL KNIGHT

Becoming a knight was part of the vassalage. In return for military service, the knight received a

fief. It was terribly expensive to be a knight. The war horse alone could cost all of a work's life.

Armor, shields, and weapons were also very expensive.

Glossary: Knight.- Caballero. Vassalage.- Vasallaje. Fief- feudo.
