....an episode in the Breton War of Succession fought to determine who would rule the Duchy of Brittany. It was an arranged fight between selected combatants from both sides of the conflict, fought at a site midway between the Breton castles of Josselin and Ploërmel among 30 champions, knights, and squires on each side. ... The combat was later celebrated by medieval chroniclers and balladeers as a noble display of the ideals of chivalry.
