"Ritter" is the German word for Knight.


The Green Knight is a character of the 14th-century. It is believed the Knight's true name is "Bertilak de Hautdesert" who is considered to be one of King Arthur's greatest champions. "King Arthur and King Cornwall" portrays Bertilak de Hautdesert as an exorcist and one of the most powerful knights of Arthur's court.
