On the side of the knight and his troop fought his servants, Knapen, Wapenen etc. if he could entertain like. Could he not have this, so it was his dignity, not injurious, the Lehn - man of Enrich or more powerful to be to accept the pay of the same, and to do war service under its banner. But Verstatteten his circumstances to maintain a considerable retinue of knights, Lehnlenten and servants for himself, so he asked the War Lord, or whose field - captain to turn his troop in a banner. They separated the tip of the troop, and this small section created from a knight banner or Panner Lord Bannerius, Vexillarius, vexillifer. This preference was once so long hereditary bey of the Panner Lord's family, as her lucky circumstances remained unchanged, ie as long as they, the required number of knights and servants, in France at least 25 in Germany but commonly toes helmets and spears probably generated people could provide and maintain against the enemy. Therefore, the French proverb; Our Time bannière, cent ans civière. But there were also Panner dominions or countries, which lead to the right or obligation to the banner, were resistant, and where, therefore, the same thing every owner approached them. "
