In feudal England, most tables were made as rectangles, with the person at the head of the table being accorded the most power. Each person was seated a certain distance away from the head of the table, and the further away you were, the less power you had.

King Arthur revolutionized this by having his most trusted knights sit with him at a round table, in effect declaring all of them as equals with the king.
