Johann Holland
In the tournament rhymes he wrote, Johann Holland describes himself as the herald from Eggenfelden in Bavaria. The tournament rhymes, the dating of which is controversial in research, are a directory of the Bavarian nobility eligible for tournament play. In the author's lexicon it is assumed that it was written in 1415/24.
