The account
At the Horns of Hattin in 1187 Saladin crushed the Crusader army and seized the True Cross they carried into battle; the relic has never been seen since.
Leads, where the trail points now
- The field is at near Tiberias, Israel, and arms, shot, and relics still come out of the ground there.
- Detecting or digging needs landowner or park permission, and any significant find should be recorded; many battlefields are protected.
- Work the documented account of The Horns of Hattin to learn where the fighting, the camps, and the rout actually ran before you look.
