Q 16. In medieval England there were nomadic mercenaries
who wandered the country side and would sell their services to the highest bidder. These were hardened fighters who lived solitary lives in the wilderness.

At local town festivals they would have exhibition jousting matches in which the winner of the fight would win the loser’s weapons and armor. The local gentry, softened by the good life, would lose to these black knights. The nomadic knights didn’t have much use for an extra set of armor and would sell it back to them immediately after the fight. Origin of what?
