Sir Galahad is a knight of King Arthur's Round Table and one of the three achievers of the Holy Grail in King Arthurian legend. Sir Galahad is the illegitimate son of Sir Lancelot and Elaine of Carbonek, and is renowned for his gallantry and purity. Sir Galahad is perhaps the knightly embodiment of Jesus in the Arthurian legends. Sir Galahad first appears in the Lancelot Grail cycle, and his story is taken up in later works such as the Post-Vulgate Cycle and Sir Thomas Malory's Le Morte d'Arthur.
