Joust is a fight between mounted knights wearing armor and using lances.The word joust probably traces its ancestry to the Roman 'juxtare', which means "to meet together." The Joust became quite popular instantly, almost eclipsing the melee style tournament in later years. The reason for this was due to the fact that its "mano y mano" or one-on-one scenario was an excellent way for an individual knight to match his skills with an opponent in a more controllable, and more visible, environment. The medieval knight undoubtedly enjoyed sharing the spotlight only with his opponent, in a venue where all spectators could easily follow the action.
