At King Arthur's Round Table, the empty seat was known as the "Siege Perilous." This seat was specifically reserved for the knight destined to achieve the Grail Quest. It was said that anyone who sat in it without being the true knight would face dire consequences.

The ancient capital of Wessex is typically accepted to be Winchester. This city served as the main seat of power for the kings of Wessex during the early medieval period and was an important center for administration and culture. Winchester was also the location of the famous Winchester Cathedral and the Winchester Round Table, associated with the legend of King Arthur.
Yes there was, it was called the triclinium. It had three couches that could seat three each. It also had a table in the center that held the food. there was also an opening at one end; so it was aranged in an open square like:[1] [3][1] [ ] [3][1] [3][2][2][2]Please for give the crudeness of the model, but ir was one person per block, with the food in the middle, and each number symbolizes a couch.
Dionysus (Greek god of wine) became a god when Hestia gave up her seat of power. The Olympians were arguing so she gave up her seat so there would be no fighting.
Crete was the seat of Rhea's earliest worship; so most likely there.
When seating 4 Knights at 4 empty seats around a round table, we can fix one Knight in one seat to eliminate the rotations, effectively reducing the problem to arranging the remaining 3 Knights in the remaining 3 seats. The number of ways to arrange 3 Knights is given by 3! (3 factorial), which equals 6. Thus, there are 6 different ways for the 4 Knights to sit at the Round Table.

There really is no important seat at a round table, besides the way a seat at a round table is if the chair was big and important. Hope that answers your question, I didn't understand it completely but I thought I would try! :)
Siege Perilous (which later belongs to "Sir Galahad The High Prince")
The Round Table was where Arthur sat with his Knights. It was given to him as a wedding present by Guinevere's father, and it showed equality through all the knights. The number seated around the table varies, but a minimum is about 12. There was a seat left empty where all who sat in it would die except one knight, the purest of knights- Sir Galahad, who sought the Holy Grail and is almost always listed as one of the Grail knights, if not the only Grail knight. A Round Table is viewable at Winchester Castle, and lists 25 knights, including Arthur himself.
Only one knight could sit in the Seat of Peril, the one destined for it. That was Lancelot's son, Galahad.
no, the higher the knight's rank, the farther to King Arthur's right he sat. To the king's immediate right was Lancelot. To his left were the least experienced knights.

The round table was used rather than a more conventional rectangle so that there would be no 'seating plan'. According to Sir Thomas Malory in the Morte D'Arthur, King Arthur implemented the Round Table because his knights kept fighting over who got the most prestigious seats at a normal, rectangular table (presumably those near the head of the table). By using a round table instead, Arthur made each seat equally prestigious, as a circle has no head or foot.
