William the Conqueror wore a crown to symbolize his authority and legitimacy as the new ruler of England after his victory at The Battle of Hastings in 1066. The crown represented the transition of power from the Anglo-Saxon kings to Norman rule, reinforcing his claim to the English throne. Additionally, it served to unify his followers and establish his status among European monarchs, signaling his role as a sovereign leader.
