The Concept Of Equality

The significance of the Round Table was that no one person, not even King Arthur, would be able to sit at the head of such a table. A round table enforced the concept of equality amongst the Knights of the Round Table. The legend states that King Arthur ordered the Round Table to be built in order to resolve a conflict among his knights concerning who should have precedence. The Round Table was therefore built to ensure that all the Knights of the Round Table were deemed equal and every one of the seats at the Round Table were all seen as highly favoured places.


Basically, the concept of equality itself shows that King Arthur gave the same treatment to all his knights regardless of their strength, wealth and so on. They are more likely to be brothers in arms and this concept help them to strengthen their relationship towards one to another  as a King he clearly way to smart and this is show a great King does not rule his kingdom with sword but obviously the King himself need brain to run the kingdom smoothly.
