Knights emerged in the early medieval period, around the 9th century, and their prominence continued until the late 15th century, marking roughly 600 years of their existence as a distinct social class in Europe. The institution of knighthood evolved over time, with changes in warfare, society, and politics contributing to its decline. By the Renaissance, the traditional role of knights diminished, though the concept persisted in various forms.
