Durendal is, according to tradition the Matter of France, the sword of Orlando, a champion of the Frankish king Charlemagne.
Legend has it that the sword had been given to Orlando from their sovereign.
Instead, in Orlando Furioso by Ludovico Ariosto says that would be given to the rider from Malagigi (Maugris) and that it once belonged to Hector of Troy (but no mention of the name of the sword in the Iliad).
In the Chanson de Roland is said that the sword contains a tooth of St. Peter, St. Basil's blood, hair of Saint Denis and a piece of clothing of the Virgin Mary. In the poem it is said that the Count tried to destroy the sword to prevent it from falling into the hands of the Saracens after the ambush of Roncesvalles, generating impact with the so-called Gap of Orlando, in the Pyrenees.
Durlindana, however, falls apart and then Orlando threw it into a river poisoned. According to folklore, the sword still exists and is preserved in Rocamadour, France. An inscription on the sword of Edward the Confessor says: "My name is Cortana, and are of the same steel and temper of the same joyful and Durlindana. The term, of unknown etymology, it seems comes from the Latin Durus (hard).
