Knights existed in ancient times. They are simply heavy cavalry who supply their own horses and armor. The rules of chivalry and knighthood, the typically medieval armor, and jousting, all came much later in the middle ages, and possibly became what we imagine them being, a couple hundred years after the Vikings raids started. Nonetheless, the knights were around in the days of the Roman Republic.
