The {{Trope Codifier}}s are the {{Chivalric Romance}}s of the medieval Matters of Britain (Myth/KingArthur) and of France (Charlemagne) -- especially the innumberable [[OlderThanTheyThink fantasy novels]] and verse epics of the 15th through 17th centuries which were based on, set in, or [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerusalem_Delivered vaguely inspired by]] the older Carolingian myths.
