For fascinating stories of the Holy Grail, please read hereunder:
In Christian mythology, the Holy Grail was the dish, plate, cup or vessel that caught Jesus’ blood during his crucifixion. It was said to have the power to heal all wounds. A theme joined to the Christianised Arthurian myths relates to the quest for the Holy Grail. Christian revisionists insist that the Holy Grail is not to be confused with the Holy Chalice, the vessel which Jesus used at the Last Supper to serve the wine; various vessels have been put forward as the Last Supper chalice. Other legends featured magical platters or dishes that symbolize super power or test the hero’s worth. Sometimes the items generate a never-ending supply of food, sometimes they can raise the dead. Sometimes they decide who the next king should be, as only the true sovereign could hold them.Old French, san grial means “Holy Grail” and sang rial means “royal blood”. Since then, Sangreal is sometimes employed to lend a medieval air in referring to the Holy Grail. The early Grail romances centered on Percival and were then woven into the more general Arthurian fabric. The Grail romances were French. We even have best-sellers of the Holy Grail in celluloid and in the trading literature.Recently, there was a cup that fetched instant riches for a rag and bone man: The 2,500-year-old item was acquired by a rag and bone man who handed it on to his grandson.
