Faintdreams, I know about a thimble full of facts about the European Middle Ages but me scoffing at a faux Middle Ages 'soldier' (in a TV drama) referring to himself - and his band of bandits - as 'Soldiers of Fortune' led Boyf to look up the phrase and apparently it's origins date back to the early 1600's !
Still a massive anachronism, but we both learned a thing 👍🏾 😉
