Ganelon
Ganelon, a knight of Charlemagne's army, betrayed his king and country by leading the Saracens to the Battle of Roncevaux Pass. This act of treachery led to the deaths of many of Charlemagne's men and caused the emperor great shame. Ganelon was eventually captured and brought to trial, where he was found guilty and executed.
