[QUOTE="Joe, post: 323384, member: 9"] But I think the OP is right in one respect - a Medieval Knight could not have been Indian. Because the first known Indians to have set foot in England didn't arrive until the 17th century at the very earliest. But there definitely Knights of Black or Moorish ethnicity fighting the armies of Europe during the Middle Ages. THAT is a fact. So if the filmmaker was gonna choose a dark skinned man, it should've been a Black person nt an East Indian. In fact, he could have made note or mentioned it in the film that Knights of Black extraction did exist back then. [/QUOTE]
