Magna Carta was issued in June 1215 and was the first document to put into writing the principle that the king and his government was not above the law. It sought to prevent the king from exploiting his power, and placed limits of royal authority by establishing law as a power in itself.

Great Charter Magna Carta – Latin for 'Great Charter' – is one of the most celebrated documents in western history. It was the first written material to set limits on the power of an English monarch, and was intended to prevent King John from exploiting his people.

Today Magna Carta has become a world-class brand, representing human rights, democracy and free speech – despite the fact that the original document makes no mention of these principles.

Magna Carta This document guarantees Barons their ancient rights: No new taxes unless a common counsel agrees. All free men have the right to justice and a fair trial with a jury. The Monarch doesn't have absolute power.

Some say it was the cup that Joseph of Arimathea used to collect drops of Jesus' blood at the Crucifixion, while others believe it was the same cup in both instances. Numerous legends of the quest for the Holy Grail, which would bring healing and eternal life, have been recounted in various ancient treatises.
