The Knights Templar were an elite fighting force of their day, highly trained, well-equipped, and highly motivated; one of the tenets of their religious order was that they were forbidden from retreating in battle, unless outnumbered three to one, and even then only by order of their commander, or if the Templar flag went down.
The Templar knights, in their distinctive white mantles with a red cross, were among the most skilled fighting units of the Crusades. They were prominent in Christian finance; non-combatant members of the order, who made up as much as 90% of their members, [1] [2] managed a large economic infrastructure throughout Christendom. [3]
The presence of the Knights Templar in Portugal can be traced from 1128 until their dissolution in the 14th century.. Having played a key role during the Portuguese Reconquista by taking, settling or defending the territory from the Muslims, the Order was an influential organisation in Portugal and valuable partner to the Portuguese Crown.
The Grand Masters of the Knights Templar during the later 12th and the 13th century used a double-sided seal which showed a representation of The Dome of the Rock (or a circular dome of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre) on one side, and the Order's symbol of two knights on one horse on the other side.
