Baphomet
2. **Templar Mythology:** Baphomet is also linked to the history of the Knights Templar, a
medieval Christian military order. During the Templar trials in the early 14th century,
accusations of worshiping a pagan idol named "Baphomet" emerged, although historians
debate whether such worship actually occurred or if it was fabricated by the Templars'
enemies.
Overall, Baphomet is a complex symbol with multiple layers of meaning, often interpreted
differently depending on the cultural, historical, and religious context in which it appears.
