    The Holy Grail is the cup used to catch the blood of Christ as he lay dying on the cross. Its location is unknown...a good guess would be the southern part of the Middle East..

    A good guess would be destroyed many years ago, it seems unlikely that it would still survive until today.

    In Christian mythology, the Holy Grail was the dish, plate, cup or vessel used by Jesus at the Last Supper, said to possess miraculous powers. The connection of Joseph of Arimathea with the Grail legend dates from Robert de Boron's Joseph d'Arimathie (late twelfth century) in which Joseph receives the Grail from an apparition of Jesus and sends it with his followers to Great Britain; building upon this theme, later writers recounted how Joseph used the Grail to catch Christ's blood while interring him and that in Britain he founded a line of guardians to keep it safe. The quest for the Holy Grail makes up an important segment of the Arthurian cycle, appearing first in works by Chrétien de Troyes (Loomis 1961). The legend may combine Christian lore with a Celtic myth of a cauldron endowed with special powers.

    A chalice that Jesus used at the last supper. A belief that there's a secret society who protects the location of the Holy Grail and some artifacts about Christ. They are the Priory of Sion.
