GIGAMEC
A malicious knight in Heinrich von dem Türlin’s Diu Crône. He killed the brother of Sir Aamanz, who was called “the Other Gawain” due to his striking similarity to Arthur’s nephew. Aamanz pursued Gigamec in revenge, and the two knights encountered Gawain himself. In a confusing melee, Gawain defeated Aamanz and gave him to Gigamec, who, with another knight named Zedoech, murdered “the Other Gawain” as soon as the real Gawain had left. Gigamec then brought Aamanz’s head to Arthur’s court, representing it as Gawain’s, causing great distress until the truth was discovered.
